THE TYPES OF
MANAGEMENT :
Agricultural Business and Economics
Agricultural business and economics studies the
relationship of economics and industrial practices in agricultural production,
from harvest to consumption. The management of farms, ranches, and farm-related
industry forms the core of the major. The management of public lands and waters
is a related interest. Technical aspects of agriculture are intensely analyzed,
since the ability to create practical solutions and get results are the
intended outcomes of the degree. Marketing and business management are also
important learning areas.
Business Administration/Management
Business
administration is
the study of the techniques and skills needed to manage an organization in
order to achieve business goals. Course work in this major includes all aspects
of business, including business organization, production, sales and marketing,
accounting, and personnel administration. A business administration major may
concentrate in one of the above areas, focusing on a specific facet of business
while taking courses in the remaining areas to complete the program.
Business Economics
Business
economics is a
major that emphasizes the dynamics of business in the study of economics. It
concerns itself with the quantitative analysis of business trends. This entails
the investigation of the forces that affect the rise and fall of business
activity. The impact of this activity on employment, capital outlay,
investment, and profit/loss is also examined. The major is geared heavily
toward statistical analysis, so a strong background in mathematics is a
necessity. It is designed to prepare students for graduate study in a variety
of fields, including economics, law, management, urban planning, and public
administration.
E-commerce
In this major, students learn how to combine
marketing tools, business strategies, and technology applications to launch new
businesses or to enhance established businesses through the use of the Internet
and other state of the art technological techniques. Often found as an area of
concentration in the business management program, or a joint program between
business and management information systems, e-commerce prepares students to work with
everything from start-up “dot com” to Fortune 500 companies. It is suited for
the student with an entrepreneurial bent who is business savvy, as well as
skilled and creative in the use of information technology. It is a new, fast
moving, quickly changing field that could allow entry to virtually any kind of
business venture.
Entrepreneurial Studies
Entrepreneurial
studies prepares
students to find and respond to opportunities for new business or for business
growth. Although typically thought for people that are interested in owning or
operating a small business, entrepreneurship cannot be limited that way. In
fact, every corporation in operation wants its managers to think like
entrepreneurs; that is, to be innovative, be on the alert for new ideas and
opportunities. A sub-specialty within a school of management or school of
business, entrepreneurial studies requires not just a fine background in
principles of management, but creativity, energy, and the willingness to take
measured risk.
Finance
Finance students learn about the dynamics of
financial decision making, the behavior of financial markets, managing
financial risk, valuing financial securities, and evaluating financial
opportunities. While for-profit, nonprofit, and public firms share some
financial principles, students generally concentrate in only one of these
sectors. As may be apparent, strong mathematical and quantitative reasoning
skills are key. This is a growingly international field of study, especially
for the private sector. Job prospects are generally good.
Insurance
Insurance is an orderly way of providing for
financial risk and uncertainty. The potential losses that can result from
accidents, fires, so-called acts of God, and other disasters can be minimized
through knowledge of proper levels and types of insurance coverage. The few
colleges that offer a true undergraduate program in insurance provide a very
comprehensive foundation in the practical aspects of this subject. Degrees
offered may be either Bachelor of Arts in insurance management or Bachelor of
Science in actuarial science.
International Business
International
business is an
area of specialization in a business administration program. It consists of an
analysis of overseas business operations, selection of investment opportunities
and evaluation of resources to support the investment, as well as an
examination of the social and cultural variables involved in conducting
business abroad. In a “shrinking world” where more corporations and more
countries think in terms of a global market, this major will simply grow in
importance in the near term. The work can be intense and can include extensive
travel, but job prospects are promising.
Operations Management
Operations
management is a
mathematically based concentration within the business administration major.
Its purpose is to solve business and related problems using a mathematical
model. Students learn to construct a model of the system to be analyzed,
including its structure and constraints, state the objectives to be realized,
and utilize mathematical techniques to find the best way to accomplish the
objective. It suits those students who are comfortable using mathematics as a
vehicle for creative problem solving.
Labor/Industrial Relations Studies
Labor/industrial relations studies is an interdisciplinary field that
deals with work, the workplace, and workers and their organizations. Drawing
from the fields of history, economics, industrial relations, political science,
law, sociology, communication, and philosophy, labor relations enables students
who complete the major to serve more effectively as members and leaders in
their organizations. Students also gain a sense of the past and present
contexts of work and unionism. Because labor leaders need to be familiar with
economics, communications, and other subjects, the labor relations major can
assist one in mastering a broad range of topics and perspectives. Internships
with local labor unions may be available or mandatory as part of the major. Few
colleges offer this program as a pure major.
POTENCIALLY
CAREERS
The management
graduates are expected, have the
analytical skills to manage the company and its functionally application. Within the scope of aspects marketing,
finance, and operations that can fill important positions.

-Company Manager - Head of Division
