| About the Major
Holy Names University
Business programs integrate the liberal arts with a strong foundation
in the fundamental components of business: management, accounting,
finance, economics, leadership, and marketing. Courses utilize
a case study approach to help students sharpen their analytical
and communication skills. Faculty bring up-to-date, practical
information about business and institutions into all classes.
Holy Names University programs are distinctive because of the
strong value they place upon diversity in the classroom and the
workplace and because they promote ethics and principles of socially
responsible business across the curriculum. The richness of our
programs provides a quality education that prepares students for
the complex responsibilities of leadership and service.
