Overview Overview "Innovative, Versatile, Relevant, Cutting-Edge, Student-Friendly, Flexible, Professional, Exciting." These are some of the words used to describe Tech’s Business and Information Technology (BIT) degree. BIT truly is a degree designed for the twenty-first century. What will strike the student entering this program is its dynamic balance between traditional business coursework and information technology requirements. The curriculum integrates business and computer applications in much the same way as today’s most successful, innovative businesses. Graduates work at the interface of business and information technology, enabling them to pursue a variety of career paths. Preparation from the course curriculum encourages and supports the need for continuing education of working professionals. The recommendation of sitting for a professional examination of the student's choosing reinforces this. Graduates from the business program will be instilled to understand and honor the concepts of ethics and diversity in the workplace The curriculum includes all of the pre-professional courses required for admission into most Master of Business Administrations (MBA) programs. The BIT degree offers students three educational options:
The Bachelor of Applied Science Degree in Business is also available through the department. This customized degree provides an opportunity for individuals having an Associate of Applied Science degree to apply a larger block of credit to a baccalaureate degree. Students not enrolled in the BIT program can choose to obtain one of two minors in Business Administrations: Accounting or Finance/Management. A minor in Business Administration is a valuable addition to an engineering or other technical degree. Students should check with an academic advisor to determine if the electives within a particular discipline can be fulfilled with business courses. Students in the Helena area can enroll in upper division courses taught by Montana Tech at the University of Montana - Helena College of Technology. Montana Tech's "Helena Program" enables students to obtain a four year business degree while working full-time.
