Degree: Small Business Management (S0508)
Small business management means managing relationships with customers and employees.
Not everyone is born into a family that owns hotels around the world. We have to start
somewhere. The best place to start is to have a passion for something.
It is surprising how many big businesses started as small businesses by people who were
passionate about their product.
This degree program is intended to prepare students for employment following graduation.
Students wishing a Bachelor's degree (transfer program) should consult
with a counselor or advisor to discuss transferability of courses.
