Undergraduate Programs, Degree Completion & Certificate Programs
The College of Management and Business prepares students for professional careers in business, industry, government, and non-profit institutions by offering baccalaureate degrees in Business Administration, and Computer Information Systems and Management. Elective concentrations in International Business, Marketing and Accounting are available within the Business Administration Curriculum.
The College of Management and Business also offers a one year certificate in Business Education for Career Advancement (BECA), which prepares students to accept entry-level positions in accounting, business administration, or data processing, with an option of continuing their studies toward a bachelor's degree.
The objective of the Business Programs curricula is to provide a foundation of work in those academic areas necessary for an appropriate combination of descriptive and analytical approaches to the study of accounting, business administration, and computer information systems. Such foundation work includes courses in the following areas: (a) communication, (b) mathematics, (c) social sciences, (d) humanities, and (e) natural sciences.
The Business Programs, based at National-Louis University's Chicago campus, offer students the opportunity to study at the heart of Chicago's vibrant business community, from which the Business Programs draw many of their skilled professional faculty members. The downtown area provides jobs for National-Louis graduates and students, a wealth of cultural resources that can enrich the learning experience, and an extensive transportation system that brings National-Louis University within the reach of all who live in the greater metropolitan area.
Classes within the Business Programs are small, to facilitate learning, and are offered during days, evenings, and weekends to accommodate full- and part-time students. Liberal arts courses are woven throughout the programs to guarantee that students have a solid foundation on which to build their business skills.
