Business Administration

 Typically research in business administration revolves around a few key areas. The biggest area of research is the analysis of how businesses interact with technology and how they innovate. The tech world is practically a revolving door that sees new products release each month. It can become a balancing act of managing funding for technology and supplying employees with the technology they need to work. General resource management of a business is important. Research can show the best approach to budgeting.

Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship focuses on self-employment, or starting up small businesses that might be considered a gamble. The research of this subject tends to simply focus on the best method to create a startup. What tools lead to the most success? What method(s) lead to the most connectivity for the business? These are the type of questions that research in entrepreneurship aims to answer. 

Finance

Research in finance tends to focus on various ways of making money. There are various topics to cover here. One possible topic could focus on the safest stocks to invest in, while balancing profit. Of course, that is a fairly broad topic. Another topic could be a look at how various streaming services, or other paid services on the internet, have changed budgeting for the average person. 

Marketing

The Marketing Department provides qualified students the opportunity to develop and conduct research projects in collaboration with the faculty through a for-credit course, MARK 3799: Independent Study (MARK 3799). 

Independent Study allows self-motivated, independent students to design learning experiences that can inspire and engage them in a wider array of educational contexts, experiences and opportunities.  Students can develop a project based on their own persistent interests in a particular topic that they wish to study in more detail.  

The department also supports internships.
