Bachelor of Science in Business Management

School of Business
The business program at The King’s College strives to provide the business community with graduates of integrity who are fully conversant with normative business practices and finance standards and who function well in global and international settings. The program stresses academic rigor to ensure that graduating students develop the competence and technical proficiency necessary to make sound business decisions. Just as importantly, the program conveys a Biblical view on ethics, property and ownership and on the role of business in society. Throughout the business curriculum, professors endeavor to bring teachings and mandates of the Bible to the field of business. Graduates are thus equipped to address the issues of integrity and character that are so critical to a healthy corporate and business environment.

The Bachelor of Science in Business Management
The program offers three major tracks as part of the Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Management – finance, management, and marketing. All three tracks share a common business core consisting of ten required three-hour courses. Five additional courses in the area of specialization are required to complete the degree. Most business courses are taken in the junior and senior years, giving business majors the opportunity to take full advantage of the liberal arts program in the Common Core.

Several core values and competencies are stressed in all business courses. Because of its critical role in business today, technology is emphasized in all business courses and technology competence is demanded of all business students. In addition, because business tends to be international, global dimensions are addressed throughout the business curriculum. The business program also emphasizes entrepreneurial vision, recognizing that entrepreneurship is the primary means by which wealth is created in our society. The business department expects that graduates of The King’s College business program will secure the knowledge and competency necessary to perform at a high level within the corporate setting, as well as at leading graduate business schools.
