Liberal Arts B A MBA

**LIBERAL ARTS - B.A./MBA**  

This program offers students in certain liberal arts majors the option of earning a B.A. and a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree, in five years.

**Why Choose the Liberal Arts - B.A/MBA program?**  

As technology transforms society, employers have a growing need for the critical thinking skills developed through the study of the humanities. With the integration of AI in the business sector, strengths in the areas that make us human will only become more valuable. A degree in liberal arts builds a foundation of cultural knowledge that spans centuries and fosters ethical acumen and creativity. Graduates of this dual-degree program will enter the workforce with the "soft skills" benefits of intensive study in the liberal arts and the "hard skills" provided by an MBA.

- To examine the logic and methods of social science research and analyze contemporary social issues from an economics perspective.
