Since grade school, I have always done really well in math.  Not only did I do I do well, I enjoy it, which a lot of people have trouble saying. But I enjoy math. Besides math, I enjoy talking to people and working with others.  I find myself learning better and applying myself more when I'm around other people, rather than secluding myself and working alone. So, because of these qualities of mine, I intend to major in Business Management.  In Business Management, there is tons of math involved to where I'll be happy with that and I'll get to work around people all day, which seems to be better for me.

  In order to major in Business Management, you have to go through the whole undergraduate program, which NAU has a fantastic one.  When starting out, a lot of the business major classes are the same.  They all require math classes, Intro to Business classes, and a Computer Information class (which is what this awesome webpage is for!).  As you get farther into your major, the classes start to become more individualized for the different types of business majors.  Yes, they all include more math  classes and general business concept classes, but other than that, each major requires different classes specific to that field.  In business management, the courses cover information on accounting and marketing, knowing how to successfully use a computer, and learning how to be successful in managing a business.  All of these types of courses combined will create the undergraduate studies for Business Management.  NAU does offer a graduate program for this major, which is something that I may be looking into, but we'll wait and see for now.

  In order to become successful after college, your grades have to reflect that you know the material.  So, in order to get the type of job I want, I need to keep studying hard and applying myself in school and get an internship at a company that will provide me wit the experience I need to succeed.  Business Management falls under the College of Business, but in order to get into that, you have to complete various things.  First off, you have to take various types of liberal studies, falling under categories such as Ethnics, Cultural, etc.  You can find out more about these by going to the College of Business Website, which is linked to my homepage!  Another thing you have to do in order to get is attend six Pathways before your fourth term.  A Pathway is a seminar that talks about different fields on business and different topics relating to business in general.  They are fun and interesting to listen to, so don't feel that these are a problem.  Just go and listen to all they have to say about the specific topic of the meeting. Who knows, you might find something really interesting and want to start and pursue that as a career.

  With this major I could go into many different job fields, such as a Consultant, a Manager of a store or hotel, a bank president, and so much more.  I for one, have not chosen a direct path yet for after college, but I know that with this major, there are many jobs I can go into and be successful.
