Sessions, Claude T. Wynn; Associate Professors, Arthur A. Done, William Bruce Handley, Alma F. Harris, Gordon Jacox, Larry V. Novak; Assistant Professor, Clyde Cooley; Instructor, Karl Wood. The objectives of the Department of Business Administration are: 1. To provide high-level, intellectually challenging, stimulating materials in our areas of academic activities. 2. To stimulate analytical thinking and decision makingcombining lessons of the past with the events of today in order to make sound decisions for future activities. 3. To help students through counseling and practical investigations and studies to turn toward a career choice and employment. 4. To instill a sense of ethics, an appreciation of competitive behavior, an understanding of human relations, and a desire to succeed. 5. To help prepare the students for entrance and successful employment in Advertising, Finance, Logistics, Management, Marketing, and Real Estate or for graduate study in Business. For Students Considering Graduate School PreparationBefore deciding on whether to pursue a graduate degree the student should confer with two or more Business Administration advisers. If assistance or further advising is desired the department chairperson will be available for help. In addition to all the requirements for the major in a Business Administraticn Concentration it is recommended that the student complete Economics 301 and 302; Management 460; and Economics 350 and 351. If the candidate has a school (or schools) in consideration the admission requirements should be ascertained as soon as possible. The faculty advisers in the Department of Business Administration will be helpful but are under no obligation to give specific advice or recommend a particular program. The student should carefully investigate the pros and cons of various graduate schools and alternative program selections. Business Administration MajorsIn addition to the general education requirements and the School of Business and Economics core requirements, all students with majors in Business Administration will be required to complete the requirements as outlined for one of the six areas of concentration: Advertising, Finance, Logistics, Management, Marketing, and Real Estate.
