Build Your Future in Business

UW-Green Bay's General Business emphasis is for students desiring broad exposure to traditional disciplines of business, but without focusing on one particular area. The student’s “core” business courses are the same as those required of all Business Administration majors, but the upper-level business requirements cut across business disciplines—including finance, management, and marketing. General Business emphasis students develop understanding and skills applicable across a variety of enterprises and organizations.
