Management is the art and science of directing the operations of both individuals and organizations to achieve desired marketplace outcomes.
Management Majors study how to effectively achieve organizational goals by planning, organizing, directing, and controlling activities that occur in different parts of the organization. Some classes may focus, for example, on how to manage internal operations, information systems, human resources, or organizational culture. A management major will study how to bring these resources together for success. The study of management gives us the tools not only to create a vision but also the tools to achieve that vision.
The Management major has three separate tracks:
It is strongly recommend that you specialize in one of these three tracks.
If you are in Sports Management, talk to your advisor about completing Human Resource Management at the same time.
