Program Overview

A good manager can adapt to almost any business structure in any industry. Because managerial skills are, for the most part, universal. A bachelor's in business management from Concordia will allow you to explore how businesses are structured while providing you with the skills you’ll need to succeed in almost any environment. You’ll gain mastery of current software for designing and managing business projects while adopting proven project management tools and techniques at each stage in a project’s lifecycle. You’ll gain an understanding of how to integrate organizational strategies that involve the parent, supplier, and sub-supplier organizations working together in domestic and global environments.

You’ll also gain practical knowledge of marketing tools, market segmentation, research analysis in decision-making, media and promotion, budgeting, and evaluation. From developing a comprehensive and viable business plan to setting and obtaining investment objectives – such as capital, debt, securitization, and government-subsidized options – this business management program will arm you with a variety of applicable skills. And you’ll learn about small businesses too, the way management is applied. Most importantly, you’ll acquire skills and experience that’ll help you become the well-rounded and insightful leader your organization deserves, whether you’re in small business, investments, or real estate.

You can earn your Bachelor of Arts in Business Management degree online or in person at one of our convenient Wisconsin center locations.  We also offer an associate's degree in business management, a Certificate, and Minor.
