Business Administration, B.S.

The mission of the program in Business Administration is to graduate students who are readily employable and highly qualified for further education. Students will have a practical balance of theoretical knowledge, experiential learning, strong ethical values, and global leadership skills We enhance learning by a close involvement in international maritime affairs, unique educational platforms, vibrant industrial partnerships, and a diversity of faculty, staff and cadets.

Several worldwide trends in business have affected the content of the courses offered at the Cal Maritime. Among these are the growth of global markets, the use of low-cost offshore locations, and the need for businesses to restructure themselves to operate globally. To respond to these important changes we have developed specialized courses in International Business, Logistics, Supply Chain Management, and International Trade and Transportation to supplement traditional business courses in Accounting, Economics, Finance, Marketing, and Management. Recognizing that we have a comparative advantage in maritime matters, the unique curriculum is designed to ensure that students gain expertise on issues that affect broad segments of the maritime, logistics and transportation industries.

The Business Administration program leads to a Bachelor of Science degree. The program is accredited by the International Accreditation Council for Business Education (IACBE), located at 1960 Quivira Road, Suite 300, Overland Park, KS 66213 USA. www.iacbe.org
