Organizational studies is an interdisciplinary major composed of 30 hours of coursework leading to the Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degree. It is designed for those students who wish to study organizational behavior and structure in the public and private realms, without limiting themselves to one of the participating disciplines. The idea is to provide students with knowledge and skills which will prepare them for entry level administrative positions in both public and private organizations. A minor is required.
