Specialized Administration, B.A.


Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Undergraduate and Graduate Curriculum

This unique program is offered to students who come to Lakeland having already completed an associate of arts (A.A.) degree in a technical or highly specialized field at a two-year college or technical school. The program allows those experienced students to build upon their expertise by adding a full range of business, accounting, and economics courses. With the “management side” of their specialty then completed, those students can graduate with a bachelor’s degree in Specialized Administration that references their specific field.

Students who major in Specialized Administration will be able to:

  • apply the central principles of business and business administration, specifically to the students’ chosen areas of expertise;
  • comprehend the ways in which economic institutions and behavior at various levels—personal, business, and social—influence administrative practices and decisions;
  • specialize in non-business subject areas in order to explore business opportunities connected to the students’ areas of expertise;
  • communicate business and economic information to stakeholders within specialized fields in a clear and professional manner; and
  • appreciate and abide by the ethical and legal rules by which business entities relate to one another and to society.
