The Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) in Supervision and Management program is designed to prepare individuals as managerial and supervisory personnel in a variety of professions. The program provides a career and educational pathway for students who have earned an Associate in Science degree in a professional and technical discipline. This degree also provides an excellent opportunity for individuals with an Associate in Arts degree and interest or experience in acquiring leadership, business management, and supervisory skills.

Program Highlights:

The BAS in Supervision and Management program includes courses in leadership, strategic planning, accounting, finance and budgeting, human resource management, business ethics, marketing and international business. Elective choices will include additional courses in management, information technology, entrepreneurship, and accounting. Courses are offered in a blend of online and traditional formats, including courses in an accelerated eight-week fashion, to accommodate students’ various schedules and learning preferences.
