Whether
you are a junior or senior in high school interested in
pursuing a career in business, or an already established
working professional contemplating earning or completing
your degree for career change or advancement, Southampton
College offers the comprehensive curriculum and hands-on
learning experience you'll need to compete and succeed in
today's rapidly-evolving business environment.
Choose
from either the B.A. or the B.S. in Business
Administration depending on your career goals and schedule
requirements. Both degree programs accommodate full- and
part-time students by offering classes during the day, evenings
and weekends. A full summer schedule is also available for
students who prefer to study year round to complete their
degree sooner.
The
73-credit B.S. in Business Administration allows
you to follow a general business program or specialize in
entrepreneurship, not-for-profit management or international
business. Classes are taught by faculty members who are
experts in their fields and working professionals. Their
involvement in the business world outside of the classroom
lends a "real world" relevance to their lectures and to
your studies. They also serve as advisors and mentors in
guiding your course selection, exploring career options
and assisting in securing work-study opportunities and job
placements.
The
64-credit B.A. in Business Administration offers
an alternative business curriculum specifically developed
for transfer and evening students, emphasizing the psychological
and sociological aspects of business. Students are required
to complete fundamental and basic business core courses
in addition to two advanced business courses and at least
one advanced course in Political Science, Sociology or Psychology.
Similar
to the undergraduate educational programs, both graduate-level
degrees provide the opportunity for you to meet and work
with local teachers and principals. Note - New York State
Education Certification requirements will change in 2000.
Southampton's Education programs will be changed to meet
the new requirements.
B.S./M.S. in Accounting
This combined bachelor and master degree of science in accounting is the most efficient way
possible to obtain a master’s degree and begin an accounting career with excellent credentials.
The combined degree meets the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and New
York State Education Year 2004 training requirements to sit for the CPA examination and
reduces the amount of on- the-job experience required before taking that exam from two years
to one.
This 150-credit program saves 14 credits and thousands of dollars over the conventional
method of earning a bachelor and master’s degree. The course of study is outlined on the
accompanying pages. We welcome inquiries from all motivated students, transfer and entering
freshman alike, interested in pursuing a career in accounting. Entrance into the graduate portion
of the program, which begins in the fourth year of full time study, requires a 2.75 overall GPA
and a 3.0 in business major courses.
The accounting curriculum prepares students for careers in public, private, and governmental
accounting. Also a student possessing a business degree with a major in accounting has
acquired skills beneficial to other business careers.
Fast Track MBA (Brentwood Campus)
In today's rapidly changing global economy, business leaders find that, in order to
maximize their careers, they must upgrade their previous skills and acquire new
expertise. This is especially true for those business leaders who wish to improve
their performance in present positions and for those seeking to enhance prospects
for upward career mobility and competitive advantage. This Fast-Track MBA
Program leads to the Master of Business Administration Degree over a period of
16 months. This unique program is designed to allow managers to earn the
advanced business degree without career interruption. The course work is
scheduled so that classes meet one evening a week and on Saturdays. The tuition
rate remains constant for the entire program regardless of University tuition
increases. The cost for this program will include University fees, courses, books,
and seminars. FAST-TRACK students take sequential courses as a cohort group.
This means that they attend the same classes and progress towards graduation
with a group of students who began the program with them. Each program group
graduates as a class.
The admission process is highly selective. Only applicants who have
demonstrated leadership, teamwork, management and supervisory experience,
initiative, good judgement and integrity will be considered for admission.
Enrollment in the program is limited.
