Bachelor of Science in Management
Description
Why should you consider
Belhaven College?
Hear what brothers, Dustin and Justin
Parrish, in the BSM program have to say.

The Bible tells us to help lift others up, when they are in need as we see in Galatians 6:2, "Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ." All it takes is a smile and a kind word to change an attitude and we receive these in our weekly study groups at Belhaven.
The Bachelor of Science in Management program is ideal for adults wanting to focus upon
management and leadership in business. The curriculum emphasizes the roles of leaders in organizations and includes courses in communications, decision-making, business law, human resources, marketing, entrepreneurship, and international management. Students are required to meet for class once a week and are required to participate in weekly study group meetings which are designed to enhance the learning process and the development of problem-solving skills. Study groups must meet a minimum of four hours per week, and their activities are monitored by their professors.
