WHY STUDY BUSINESS AT TRINITY?

Based on a strong academic foundation, the business major is designed to equip students with strategic, interpersonal, and practical skills to prepare them for success in businesses or in other organizations. The major prepares graduates for administrative careers in businesses or nonprofit organizations as well as for potential graduate work. Students may choose an emphasis in accounting, entrepreneurship, human resource management, management, marketing, nonprofit management, and social entrepreneurship. An additional area of emphasis may be added if the student fulfills all of the requirements of the additional emphasis including at least 9 hours of coursework beyond that which is required of the original area of emphasis. The curriculum includes content recommended by specialized accrediting agencies, enabling Trinity business graduates to successfully compete with students who graduate with business degrees from internationally accredited colleges and universities.

PERSONAL. PRACTICAL. BIBLICAL.

At Trinity, you’ll be equipped to think critically and biblically in every area of life as you are challenged to apply your faith to your coursework and classroom conversations. And instead of approaching general education as a checklist of courses to be completed, Trinity’s distinctive educational approach gives you the freedom to choose courses that are most interesting and relevant to you. Working closely with your faculty advisor, you can select from electives to enhance your major, apply toward a minor, create a double major, or simply experience something new. The choices are yours! All along the way, you’ll be cared for and supported, ensuring that you make the most of your college experience.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE ME TO EARN MY DEGREE?

Most Business majors finish their degree in 3-4 years, depending on their course load.
