Abraham Baldwin Agricultural College

The Division of Business Administration

        Business Administration

        Economics

This program is designed to prepare a student for the first two years of a four year degree in business. The major part of this program for the freshman and sophomore years consists of courses that provide a sound foundation in the humanities, natural and behavioral sciences and mathematics as well as the basic courses in business. These courses are designed to transfer to a senior college or university. The junior and senior years would consist of an intensive study in one of the selected areas of business (some of which are listed below.) If the student plans to transfer outside the University System of Georgia, he should contact the college or university and obtain a catalog or curriculum guide from the School of Business to determine whether different requirements for that school can be accommodated in the Abraham Baldwin curriculum.
