Management

Management majors at Wingate earn either a BS or BA degree. The BA degree requires intermediate second-language courses, while the BS degree has more math or lab science credits. Students may also minor in management. 

Management Four Year Plan

The four year academic plans are standard templates for how a degree can be completed in eight (8) consecutive fall and spring semesters.  There is varying flexibility in the exact course sequence depending upon individual student circumstances, major curriculum and course availability.  Students should consult with their faculty advisor for course sequencing, degree planning and other considerations.  Students are ultimately responsible for their degree planning.

Entrepreneurs, small-business owners and multinational corporations all rely on effective management techniques to stay afloat. A business management degree prepares our majors with those skills.

Managing People 

Leaders who motivate employees and inspire excellence are an asset to companies. A management degree prepares you to effectively head departments in any organization.

Graduates also can step into roles as human resources staff or corporate recruiters. Understanding what employers want and employees need, they can find and attract top talent. Management majors have the financial know-how to choose the best deals for insurance and other employee benefits, too.

Managing Communities

Urban planning requires organizational, logistical and communication skills. Management students have the know-how to take charge of city projects or assume community development roles. They can also oversee local recreation programs, parks and other such initiatives.

Managing Resources

Companies need people who can handle money, tracking what goes out and what comes in. Smart financial managers can help their employers cut costs and increase profits by making sound business decisions.

Project managers contribute to company success by increasing efficiency. They assign people to tasks, track workflows and meet deadlines.
