Department Overview
To meet the technological, global and ethical challenges of the
marketplace and society at large, the Management Department
provides management education in a climate conducive to scholarship
in managerial decision-making and human relation skills. The
Department's objectives make the student aware of business' place
in contemporary society, emphasizing the scope and responsibilities
of business, the sociopolitical milieu in which it operates and the
economy from which it derives. Students learn to develop
intellectual competence and basic managerial skills in such
functional fields as materials and operations management, personnel
management, methods improvement, the management of information
systems and international management.
Managers must be acquainted with theories of organization,
information systems, decision-making, leadership, communicating and
environmental administration and must maintain a view towards
career planning. The Department recommends that students majoring
in management join the Society for the Advancement of Management,
American Production Inventory Control Society, Sigma Iota Epsilon
and subscribe to their professional publications.
