Why a Business Degree?
Earning a Business degree rewards students with flexible, transferrable and in-demand skills that can be applied across a vast variety of industries. Business degrees allow students to apply their knowledge to a broad number of careers, often in a way that closely alligns with their values, passions and interests. In addition, Business degrees are often in high demand and can maximize hiring and earning potential. For first-generation and low income college students, a business degree can provide a high return on investment on the cost of their education and can provide opportunities to improve their circumstances.
