Why Choose the Retail Business Management Program?
The retail field changes daily, and thinking outside the box is the way of the future. As the constant struggle between internet commerce and brick-and-mortar stores continues, retailers scramble to find the perfect balance. Employers look for dedicated managers and associates who are ready for the challenge and willing to go the extra mile. The phrase "That is not my job" has no place in the retail industry.

The program prepares students for careers in marketing, sales, retailing, customer service, entrepreneurship, and general business applications. Students develop both the technical and human relations skills necessary to succeed in today’s competitive work environment.
If you enjoy retail and want to make it a career, this program is the right fit for you.
