Doing Management Right

Dominican University’s Bachelor of Science in Management promotes our motto of ‘Doing Business Right’ – which means learning to be successful through modern business techniques while also making the world a better place.

The Management program at Dominican University will prepare ethical business leaders for a complex and changing world and provide a solid foundation of knowledge and experience that can help our students inspire change and innovation so that they can thrive personally and serve their communities. This is what we consider “Doing Management Right.”

What You’ll Learn

When you enroll in a Dominican University business management program, you’ll learn the most effective business management tactics, but you’ll also learn so much more than the mechanics of how to run a business. You’ll develop effective leadership skills, learn how to think strategically about business issues, learn how to succeed in an ethical manner, develop strong problem-solving skills so you can analyze problems through both quantitative and qualitative approaches, and so much more. You’ll study marketing, business finance, and entrepreneurship and you’ll learn how to manage sales and marketing departments. You’ll also learn important basic skills ranging from creating presentations to speaking in public to how to use basic business technology. And you’ll learn how to apply all this to real-world issues.
