Welcome
to Howard University
School of Business
Department of Management
Built
upon a basic foundation of general education and the business
core, the undergraduate program clearly offers a broad-based
professional education in management. We are in an era
in which professional interests and larger social considerations
tend to be in conflict at every turn, and professional
education programs all over the country are competing with
one another in their attempts to develop the ideal curriculum.
A sound undergraduate business education must emphasize
the broader facets of the general education requirements
as well as the business core subjects. In our times of
growing social awareness, meeting this challenge would
appear to be essential. It is important, therefore, to
emphasize that our program is designed to prepare our graduates
to meet both professional and societal expectations. (See Courses)
