Undergraduate Academic Programs

The Collins College of Business offers one undergraduate degree, the Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (B.S.B.A.) .

Program Objectives

Students who complete the B.S.B.A. program will be:

  • effective and professional communicators;
  • knowledgeable of ethical, global, and social environmental factors and how they relate to business decisions; and
  • knowledgeable of the functional areas of business.

Experiential Learning

Student internships are jointly planned and administered by the faculty of the Collins College of Business and participating public or private organizations. Internships provide the opportunity to reinforce knowledge of principles and concepts introduced in the classroom through application in actual professional situations. Internships include working arrangements with Tulsa-area organizations as well as opportunities nationally and in international locations.

No more than three semester hours of internship credit may count toward a B.S.B.A. degree. For the best internship opportunities and information concerning career development, students should consult their faculty mentor and Cane Careers.
