Bachelor of Science:
Business Administration
Concentration in Legal Studies
Effective Fall 2009
  

Enhancing the business law component that is required of all business administration majors, the Legal Studies Concentration is designed to provide students with a foundation in general legal principles and practices. The primary objective of the concentration is to provide students with a survey of criminal and constitutional law in the United States. In addition, the concentration offers students a global perspective with course work in international law. Moreover, with the widespread use of the Internet in business and society, the concentration also examines contemporary legal and ethical concerns associated with the rapidly evolving realm of cyberspace. The concentration is well suited to students planning business careers requiring insight into general legal principles and practices. Additionally, it provides a foundation for students seeking to continue the study of law upon graduation.
