Bachelor of Arts in US Culture and Business Practices

About This Program

A US Culture and Business Practices degree allows students to complete an interdisciplinary program of study that draws together rich training in the history, politics, arts, and culture of the United States with significant training in Business. Students will develop the breadth of knowledge indicative of a liberal arts education. Students will enhance critical thinking and writing skills, develop communication and other “soft skills,” and hone problem-solving strategies. This training will mesh with key aspects of a Business degree, including Management, Marketing, Finance, and Economics. Students will thus attain the fundamentals of a Business degree within the broader scope of skills and methods of inquiry associated with the liberal arts. This degree will be beneficial for a wide range of students: students who plan to work in business, technological, cultural, community, and humanservice settings; students who wish to combine the liberal arts with a more applied field; and students for whom a traditional intracollege major is too limiting. Students will be equipped with the flexible skills associated with a liberal arts degree, and who are also well-positioned to succeed in a twenty-first century entrepreneurial economy.
