Management Option for Business Administration

Students transferring into the Chico State College of Business can complete their business administration degree without traveling to Chico, if they specialize in the management option. The Management Option is designed to develop skills in the administration of human and physical resources, to foster decision-making and entrepreneurial thinking, and to provide exposure to diverse business environments and management strategies. From analysis of system dynamics to corporate social responsibility to employment law, recent graduates have prepared for a variety of career paths in companies such as Oracle, Yelp, KPMG, and UPS.

Students completing the Management Option can also obtain a minor in project management by taking just one additional course on project portfolio management. You will gain hands-on project management experience in the class, while learning how to manage multiple complex projects, productively, under significant time constraints. This complements the management option by providing a value-added skill-set that employers seek.
