BSB in Business Administration
One Major, Two Options

The Major

The Bachelor of Science in Business (BSB) in Business Administration is a unique business program available only online or at Parkland College in Champaign, Illinois.  The program was developed specifically to meet the needs of:

• Students who want to complete a business degree;
• Students who need a more flexible class schedule because of work or family commitments;
• Students who have already completed several hours of General Education course work and business classes or have earned an Associate in Science or Associate in      Arts degree from a community college.

The BSB in Business Administration provides a broad background in business including coursework in accounting, finance, management, management information systems, and marketing.

All classes are taught by Eastern Illinois University business faculty.  As part of EIU’s School of Business, the program is fully accredited by AACSB International—the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.

Two Options

 Online

The Business Administration online classes are asynchronous.  They do not require “live” classes that meet at a specified time each week.  Students have the flexibility of listening to lectures and reading required materials on their own schedule.  There are scheduled assignment due dates and specified exam windows to meet course requirements.  Fall and spring semester classes meet for 16 weeks.  Most summer classes are four weeks long.

 At Parkland College

The Business Administration classes are taught at Parkland College in Champaign in the evenings. Each three-hour class typically meets one evening per week for 16 weeks during the spring or fall semester and two evenings per week during the a four week summer term.  Students in this program also have the opportunity to complete online courses if desired.
