Studying Management at UMM

The management curriculum begins with a foundation in the view of the economic environment that comes from the social science perspective provided by the field of economics, and then focuses on the issues that arise and tools that are used in operation and control of business and non-profit organizations in the economy. In addition to developing competence in analytical and core business areas, students majoring in the field are expected to learn to critically examine business and other institutions from a broader perspective. The management curriculum is structured around three distinct applied emphases, one of which must be selected: financial management, global business, or organizations and human resources.

Students majoring in management are encouraged to complete a broad range of courses and participate in related academic experiences, and management can be a stand-alone major, or combined with many other majors or minors. A frequent choice, for those who wish to deepen their understanding of the more general perspective economics brings to management issues, is to take advantage of partly overlapping course requirements to double-major in management and economics.

Economics and Management are part of the Social Sciences Division. The division office and many faculty offices can be found in historic Camden Hall.
