Business Administration / 3Year Honors Degree Program (B.S.)

Request Information


The mission of the 3Year Honor's degree program is to educate selected, qualified students who desire a bachelor's degree in business administration in six semesters.The program is designed so that students will:
  • succeed in obtaining employment upon graduation and advancing in their chosen professions and careers.
  • realize their individual potential and contribute to the betterment of their local communities and society at large.
  • be effective leaders and proponents of change.
  • become successful lifelong learners.

The university recognizes its obligation to deliver a high-quality program that prepares students for profoundly changing business, cultural and geopolitical environments so that they may have the best chances for personal and professional success and are equipped to provide effective leadership.  

Although the 3Year Honor's degree program will be taught in the time frame of the traditional semester, the course content will be delivered through comprehensive and often interdisciplinary modules instead of typical 3-credit classes.

Each semester will conclude with a week-long (20-hour) integrating experience that will bring together competencies learned through the modules offered during that semester. Students are required to complete all specially designed modules in the 3Year Honor's degree program. Students who complete the 3Year Honor's degree curriculum earn 120 credits.
