“Being a Management major has allowed me to develop critical soft skills necessary to succeed in any workplace. While algorithms, accounting, and action items are all paramount to navigating business, the core of commercial activity lies with people. The program excels at hitting this crucial point home with a focus on learning how to build, maintain, and strategize relationships within the professional setting.”
— Carson Poupore, management major
