Bachelor of Arts in Business and Applied Science

Program Overview

Why Study Business and Applied Science
Unlike a traditional BA in a business program, the Bachelor of Arts in Business and Applied Science is designed to give you the real-world skills and applicable knowledge you need in daily business operations. Take on tasks in marketing, finance, human resources, and other business areas with the critical knowledge it takes to get the job done. A business and applied science program uses theoretical knowledge to support real-world applications. This program is a popular step beyond an associate degree in applied science. Expand on your existing knowledge and hone your passions to prepare for a position in a new company, a much-deserved promotion, or other career change. Adding business courses to your existing applied science coursework allows you to improve your position in your company or seek out new positions in related companies. The diverse nature of business courses allows you to change tracks in your career journey. If finance, management, marketing, or other areas don’t fit your passions, select electives that guide you toward a new specialization. Broad business and finance knowledge from general coursework gives you the options you need to survey the business world and find the role suited to your interests. If you already have a busy career, you can’t afford to take a traditional business program. This degree program from GSU is offered fully online, so you can enjoy a flexible class schedule and location. Fit studying and coursework in between work hours or other busy life commitments to keep your career moving forward with minimal disruption. Move ahead in your career by improving your training without missing years of work.
