BUS 388 - Seminar in Professionalism (3 cr.)

This course provides a context for business students to excel in their post-graduate careers by exploring five main areas: 1) Ethics in Business; 2) Managerial and Leadership Skills; 3) Information Technology; 4) Communications (written and oral); 4) Internships; and 5) Career Assessment. Students will develop competence and understanding in each of these areas with an emphasis on research writing and presentations, both individually and as part of a team. By exploring the concept of “professionalism,” students will gain insight and appreciation for the characteristics that constitute an effective business leader. This course provides students the opportunity to construct the framework for a career assessment plan where they define professional goals and identify their strengths and weaknesses through written and oral work.
