The Associate in Business Administration degree is designed for students who plan to eventually complete a bachelor's degree in a business-related field. Some of the majors pursued by students following this program include Accounting, Advertising, Economics, Finance, General Business, Marketing, Personnel/Industrial Relations, and Public Administration. Students planning to transfer to a four-year college or university must consult with their advisor and carefully study the requirements of the four-year institution from which they intend to secure a bachelor's degree. Appropriate course substitutions may be made upon the recommendation of a student's advisor and with approval of the appropriate dean. Substitutions are only made in accordance with the specific requirements of the baccalaureate degree-granting institution to which the student intends to transfer.
