Our management program builds on a core business curriculum. Students learn principles of accounting, business, economics, finance and marketing in addition to management. When they graduate, they have a thorough understanding of how to make organizations work efficiently and effectively.
The management major doesn’t focus on just one or two areas. Students learn about the challenges and requirements of many functions within organizations.
This program emphasizes:
Human resources management
Management information systems
Operations management
Organizational behavior
Production management
Strategic management
Courses incorporate hands-on projects for real companies. In the Finance Lab, you solve problems through case studies and simulations. In fact, all upper-level courses are taught in the lab using the latest software tools. Summer research grants pay you to work with a faculty member on your own projects.
W’International travel seminars
introduce you to new cultures and experiences that can build your understanding of international business.
Major Requirements

Career Opportunities
Management majors at Wingate earn either a BS or BA degree. The BA degree requires intermediate second-language courses, while the BS degree has more math or lab science credits. Students may also minor in management.

Entrepreneurs, small-business owners and multinational corporations all rely on effective management techniques to stay afloat. A business management degree prepares our majors with those skills.
Managing People
Leaders who motivate employees and inspire excellence are an asset to companies. A management degree prepares you to effectively head departments in any organization.
Graduates also can step into roles as human resources staff or corporate recruiters. Understanding what employers want and employees need, they can find and attract top talent. Management majors have the financial know-how to choose the best deals for insurance and other employee benefits, too.
Managing Communities
Urban planning requires organizational, logistical and communication skills. Management students have the know-how to take charge of city projects or assume community development roles. They can also oversee local recreation programs, parks and other such initiatives.
Managing Resources
Companies need people who can handle money, tracking what goes out and what comes in. Smart financial managers can help their employers cut costs and increase profits by making sound business decisions.
Project managers contribute to company success by increasing efficiency. They assign people to tasks, track workflows and meet deadlines.
Managing the Future
A business management degree prepares our students to contribute to an organization’s success. To learn more, contact the department to speak to a management professor.
