Why study Business Management Technology?

Business technology is a program providing a broad foundational study of knowledge required for entry-level positions in business management. It includes a general education core and an introduction to the functional areas of business: management, marketing, accounting, and finance.

Graduates of this program receive an associate of applied business degree. Career programs are designed for students who plan an associate degree only or want to continue at the UC Blue Ash campus for a technical baccalaureate (BTAS program). Some courses will NOT transfer to UC Uptown campus programs.

Career Possibilities

The general business technology program prepares students for entry-level opportunities in business and industry.

Students who complete the degree qualify for entry-level positions in commerce, industry, public practice and government. Job opportunities are numerous in a wide spectrum of organizations, and will depend in some part on previous education and work experience.

Majoring in Business Management Technology

Business majors may complete the associate degree requirements in two to three years attending full-time, depending on math and English placement. Part-time students may complete the program at their own pace, attending days and/or evenings. The program includes core courses in business and general education, which prepare the student to think critically and be a lifelong learner.
