Program Overview

Business management is key to a company’s success or failure. Business managers make far-reaching decisions about personnel, equipment, finances, materials, advertising, marketing and sales. More business managers today are working in the international arena.

MCC’s Business Management degree and certificate programs prepare students for a variety of entry- and mid- level management positions, including office manager, department manager, human resources manager, sales manager and store manager. Opportunities can be found in almost every arena-health, banking, trade, manufacturing, telecommunications, government, retail, service, nonprofit, e-business and social marketing.The program can also help those already in management positions fine-tune their skills and become more effective in decision-making, problem-solving and human relations- three vital areas. Business simulations help students learn how to run a company and compete in the marketplace.

The AAS degree is not designed specifically for transfer; however, there are opportunities to apply some coursework or the whole degree to a bachelor’s degree program.
