AREAS OF CONCENTRATION FORMAT • Each concentration is a collection
of five courses chosen from a variety of classes; these courses
may be taken concurrently with the BBA/BSM core program or following
completion of the core.

total of 15 credit hours, twelve of which are to be taken in addition
to coursework required for the BSM core.

to coursework required for the BBA core except for the Human Resources
