What will I learn?

Foundation courses will give you a broad education in accounting, macro- and microeconomics, finance, reasoning, marketing, and business ethics. Specialized courses include management strategies, planning for new ventures, human resources, workplace diversity, and gender, and operations and supply chain management.

Business majors can choose from two concentrations: Entrepreneurship for those interested in launching a business and Operations and Supply Chain Management for those seeking a career in manufacturing and supply.

You can also dual major to deepen your skills and expertise. Our International Business program gives you the skills to succeed in an international environment and our Study Abroad programs broaden your cultural understanding. Read more about Study Abroad below.

Our Management major is offered through the SAU College of Business, which is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP). Only about 1,500 U.S. business schools and colleges are accredited.

Our students also get to apply their learning to real projects, which allows you to learn from and contribute to, the Quad Cities community.

What have alumni of this program done?

  • Wes Erickson '12, '14 MOL thought he would head into the armed forces, but instead found his passion in management and marketing. Although he achieved minors in those areas, his knowledge and interests - as well as mentoring by Wes' favorite professors - propelled him toward a master's degree in Organizational Leadership at SAU. As a Project Manager with UnityPoint Health's Enterprise Program Management Office, Wes succeeds at his job with the well-rounded and multi-discipline education he earned at Ambrose.
  • Elijah Grant IV '15 double-majored in management and marketing and now runs his own media firm, Grant Media in Davenport. Knowing how to affect change and inspire people was what Elijah took away from St. Ambrose. "The leadership opportunities on campus made my time at St. Ambrose worthwhile. Being in those leader roles as a student prepared me to lead outside of the classroom and helped me grow as a person.”
