Show SCHOOL OF BUSINESS AND ECONOMICS Quinn G. McKay, Dean The School of Business and Economics aims to provide men and women with the opportunity to make a life and a living, to educate them to enter private business, to prepare them for employment with federal and state government agencies, to assist them to become teachers, to help them acquire skills required in the many phases of economic and business research, to develop in them an understanding of our economy, and to enhance their ability to analyze thought. At present, the School includes the Departments of Accounting, Economics, Business Administration, Office Administration and Business Education. The School offers baccalaureate programs in Accounting, Banking and Finance, Economics, Management, Marketing, and Office Administration, and a secondary composite teaching major in Business Education. (Students interested in industrial psychology should see the chairman of the Department of Management or Psychology.) Baccalaureate Degree Requirements—Candidates for the Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science degree must complete at least 183 hours of work approved by the Dean of the School and its faculty. In addition to completing the General Education Requirements of the College, at least 90 of the 183 hours must be completed in the School of Business and Economics. At least 60 of the 183 hours must be upper division courses —those with numbers 100 or above—which are not open to Freshmen and Sophomores without approval of the chairman of the department offering the course, except where School requirements provide otherwise. A Certificate of Completion in Office Administration or an Associate of Science or Arts degree in Office Administration is available upon completion of a minimum of 93 hours of prescribed courses.
