SMCCME

SMCC offers two associate degrees and three certificates in Business Administration. These programs provide students with a foundation in general business practices, leadership concepts, and microcomputer applications. In addition to acquiring skills in accounting, finance, sales, and operations, students enhance their ability to write, think, work in groups, solve problems and build confidence and the ability to succeed in the world of business. The Associate in Applied Science degree is intended for those students wishing to maximize the number of business courses taken in preparation for a career in business immediately upon graduation. The Associate in Science degree emphasizes math, science, and core distribution requirements. The sequence of courses comprises the typical transfer option that many baccalaureate programs prefer, deferring many business courses until the third or fourth year.

Graduates of the Business Administration program who wish to pursue a baccalaureate degree may take advantage of existing or pending transfer agreements with Husson College, Thomas College, the University of Southern Maine, or the University of Maine at Augusta.

Upon completion of the program, graduates will be able to:

• Make decisions and take actions that enable businesses/organizations to earn profits and grow.
• Describe and utilize the role of science, technology, and market commercialization in the creation of viable products and services.
• Demonstrate an ability to understand organizational structures.
