Business Administration

Learn to make strategic decisions and confidently lead rather than follow by mastering the basics of business. As part of Villa’s Business Administration program, you’ll learn to think critically and consider long-term plans as you study the core business functions, like accounting, marketing, economics, human resources, management, statistics, and operations.

Experience

At Villa, you’ll work with local businesses to develop real-world marketing plans, recruitment strategies and analytical skills. Coupled with the internship experience you’ll be required to gain, these abilities translate into an incredible education that prepares you for a successful career upon graduation.

Applicability

Understanding the real-world implications of the core business functions you’ll study is imperative to achieving your long-term goals. Our project-based curriculum will help you master the principles you read about and experience how they are really applied in a professional business setting.

Communication

At Villa Maria, your business administration education will prepare you to be a leader in any business environment. You’ll learn how to develop a solid business strategy, but more importantly, you’ll learn how to think critically, work with a team, and think on your feet while delivering presentations.
