On behalf of the Department of Management, I want to welcome you to our website. If you are in the process of evaluating major fields of study, you will find a number of informative links that may assist you in making your decision, including:
- Our innovative undergraduate, MBA, and Ph.D. academic programs. We offer a variety of programs that prepare students for careers in such areas as operations and supply chain management, human resource management, and entrepreneurship.
- Certification programs in Leadership and Supervisory Management and Human Resource Management at the graduate level
- A wide variety of online course offerings for undergraduate and MBA students.
- Opportunities for summer study abroad in Europe. In addition, we have recently added winter term study abroad opportunities.
- Profiles of our very talented faculty who bring a breadth of knowledge and experience to the classroom
A major resource for our majors in entrepreneurship is the Murphy Enterprise Center, which was recently recognized as a First Tier Regional Program by Entrepreneur Magazine. The Murphy Enterprise Center was established through the generous support of alumni Ken Murphy and his late wife, Shirley. Their endowments support both the operations of the center and scholarships for students in entrepreneurship. The annual leadership luncheon, held each year in November, recognizes outstanding entrepreneurs as well as the accomplishments of our students, including a new venture creation contest that provides seed money to "budding" entrepreneurs.
I hope you find our website informative, whether you are a new student investigating potential major areas of study or alumni who want to keep up with the latest news from the Department of Management. We also encourage you to contact us if you have questions or suggestions for our web site.
Thank you for visiting our web site.
