Career Outlook

According to the U.S. Bureau for Labor Statistics, employment in business and financial operations occupations is projected to grow 8 percent from 2020 to 2030, about as fast as the average for all occupations, adding about 750,800 new jobs. Globalization, a growing economy, and a complex tax and regulatory environment are expected to continue to lead to strong demand for accountants and auditors. In addition, increasing usage of data and market research in order to understand customers and product demand, and to evaluate marketing strategies, will lead to growing demand for market research analysts.

Students benefit from this program by gaining knowledge and skills in the various aspects of business that may move them ahead in their field or forge a new career path, such as:

Business planning
Small business management
Entrepreneurial law
Strategic marketing
Freelance work
