Why Study Business- Management, B.A.S. at Montana Tech? 

Do you have an Associate of Applied Science degree but want to go further and seek upward mobility into a management role? This degree is perfect for you. You'll receive credit for at least 42 credit hours you've previously taken as part of a block transfer process. 

Become Career-Ready

More than 50 percent of all U.S. economic activity is related to information technology (IT). Technology is critical to the operation of businesses in today’s world. Investing in a degree that teaches you about the innovative ways IT is used to help organizations succeed will assure you a high starting salary at graduation. A major shortage of information systems professionals also means there are more job opportunities available than there are graduates.

Outstanding Faculty 

Above all, students can be assured Business Department professors are both knowledgeable and committed to teaching accounting; we proudly count two certified accountants as faculty members.

Excellent Facilities

When studying in the Business Department you’ll have access to exceptional computer labs equipped with double monitors, SAP Enterprise System software, and more.

Hands-on Learning

Through hands-on learning experiences, such as class projects, case studies, business simulations, and a senior capstone project, you’ll learn to apply business concepts to real-world business situations. Your faculty mentors will also help connect you to high-quality, hands-on business internships with companies of interest to you.
