Assistant Professors: Barce, Fallon (Chair)
The Department of Business is responsible for two programs on the 91制片厂 State University-Northern campus: Management and Business Education.
The Department of Business serves over 350 students with its programs on the Havre campus and at the Great Falls Center. About 90 percent of those students are enrolled in the management program. Five percent are studying to be high school business teachers, and the remaining students are enrolled in the Business minor.
MANAGEMENT PROGRAMS
Management students can choose between a two-year, Associate degree and a four-year Bachelor's degree. The two-year degree is designed so students move into the four-year degree without losing any credit.
In addition to professional management courses, the four-year program also requires students to do additional work in a business minor or a minor program outside the department. The business minors are Marketing: Technical Sales and Service, Small Business Management and Accounting. The selection of minor degrees includes over 20 programs in the liberal arts and technologies
The two-year degree is the first step in a professional management career. Students may find entry-level jobs with a variety of businesses, but eventually they will have to compete with people who have a four-year Bachelor's degree. The four-year degree at 91制片厂 State University-Northern is particularly appealing to students since it permits them to do additional work in business subjects or develop an expertise in other academic area.
Graduates of the management program work for a variety of organizations. They have found careers with major corporations, small businesses, banks, insurance companies, health organizations, educational institutions, agricultural companies, entertainment groups, and manufacturing entities.
EDUCATION PROGRAM
The four-year Business Education degree prepares students to become high school teachers. Those teachers are responsible for a number of clerical courses like keyboarding and computer word processing and courses in accounting or bookkeeping, law, marketing and personal finance.
The curriculum is designed to satisfy the requirements of the State of 91制片厂's certification standards for teachers. Students take management and clerical courses, and complete a number of education courses which include several field experiences in area high schools. Business Education majors are also required to take several specific courses in the liberal arts and health to meet state teacher certification standards.
Student Education Plans (S.E.P.): Students should consult their advisors when setting goals, objectives and compiling their individual Student Education Plans. Students completing entrance requirements to Business or Business Education programs may complete their degree requirements in four (4) years when the course offerings are carefully followed as stated.
