Schools offering Business Administration

Any comments…

I know for a fact UCLA doesn’t have it.

Every community college offers business administration

@NASA2014 4-year Universities specifically

Majority of the UC’s do not offer Business Admin as a major, only UCI/UCR/UCB.

@Gumbymom Well I’m not a California resident, I was just throwing UCLA out there as an example. Fine, how about on a national perspective.

OP, please go to the websites of schools that interest you. Click on “Academics” or “Schools and Colleges”. If it lists a School of Business, click on that and see if they offer an undergraduate program.

@TomSrOfBoston I already did, and came up with a list. So far, I’m just asking for more options.
-Emory
-UC Berkley
-Texas A&M
-U of Texas
-UVA
-GT
-U of Pitt
-U of Maryland
-Clemson
-UGA
-U of Mich
-Purdue
-Ohio State

UW-Madison offers a BBA.

I checked two other nearby schools, IU and Minnesota, and neither offers a BBA.

Virtually every 4 year university, other than some elite schools, offers undergraduate business. At some the degree is a BBA, at others it is a BS in BA, same thing, different name.

A BBA is going to provide a broader business education – from a core course standpoint – than will a BS in, say, Econ or Marketing, which will likely be more specialized in those subjects.

that is not to say that you can’t take an Ops class or an Org Behavior class if you are majoring in Marketing, but in a BBA those will likely be required.

Penn (Wharton)

A BS in BA requires a broad range of business courses in addition to a major. Different name, same program. Check out some BS in BA programs on websites like like Northeastern, BU, BC and hundreds of others.

@TomSrOfBoston Thank you, but some business schools, such as Virginia Tech for one, don’t have Business Administration. @intparent Well theres one. haha

@coolbird Yes VT does offer business:
http://www.pamplin.vt.edu/

“Business administration” is just a collective term for the various business specialties.

@TomSrOfBoston Although they have a MBA program they don’t offer undergrad Business Administration. The MBA program is located in North Fall Springs and not on the main campus. I even contacted some of the people in the admissions department and they said they don’t offer an undergrad Business Administration but they have an MBA program.

CoolBird, you were misinformed. Pamplin offers an undergraduate program in Business. They are especially strong in Operations and MIS.

Research each university on my list above personally. Do not call universities unless you have specific questions.

@coolbird You are not getting it! VT has an undergraduate business program:
http://www.undergrad.pamplin.vt.edu/
Again, “business administration” is an umbrella term for the various business majors. You do not major in business administration at any school.

@Alexandre @TomSrOfBoston Ok gotcha
