3 Courses You Can't Miss

When you are deciding on a schedule, you'll have a pick of required and optional courses. Of course the required courses will need to be taken, but your concentration or elective classes are free to choose. Here are some great ones to look for in your catalog:

1. Organizational Behavior - You'd think it would all be common sense, but in fact OB is a real scientific discipline with a lot of research and analysis behind it. What motivates people and how they form teams or hierarchies is very valuable to know in the business world.
2. Financial Management - Don't be fooled, I'm not talking about Financial Accounting -- that's boring stuff (and probably a graduation requirement). Financial Management is what the financial analysts do. It involves funding business operations, maximum cash flow, and making strategic decisions on how to use Free Cash Flow to improve the business.
3. Business Economics - This is a really interesting course if you can find it. It's all about macro economics in the business (and government) world. Ever wanted to know how the Federal Reserve Bank works, or how companies raise capital, then this is the course for you!
