The Business Fundamentals Certificate is a 12-credit graduate certificate program that delivers a core set of skills essential to operate and manage any business. Students take four graduate courses that enable them to develop competencies in marketing, accounting and managerial decision making, strategic finance, and the design and management of business processes.
This certificate is ideal for technical professionals, clinicians, and individuals with non-business degrees who are looking to transition into managerial roles and assume greater responsibility for the overall performance of their units. Their technical skills may have landed them a coveted promotion. The Business Fundamentals Certificate will help them deliver business results. The certificate is made up of existing MBA courses and will serve as a pathway into the MBA.
