​ It is a flexible degree

The course requirements are simple for my General Business degree. I have the entire list of business classes offered at my university, and all I have to do is pick from 5 different areas of business.

For example, I am taking classes in the areas of international, finance, marketing, management, and computer information systems. Once I have taken a class within all of those areas, I can pick and choose any other classes I want.

I have found out that I really enjoy marketing and management. I have taken more classes in those areas than others because I get to pick which ones I want to take. I just have to take enough credit hours to graduate.

You get to experience all the different areas of business

As mentioned before, I have taken classes from all the different areas of business offered at my university. I truly believe that gives me an advantage because I have more experience than other business majors.

I have taken a risk management and insurance class and a human resource class. Other business majors do not have the opportunity to take these other classes because their degree plan is too full.

 All employers want is the piece of paper

Ultimately, all employers want is to see that you got a degree. Especially in the business world. When they see you were willing to put in the work to get a Bachelor of Science in Business, you're already in consideration for the job.

Something that makes anyone more attractive to a potential employer is having experience. The best way for any business student to put themselves above the rest is to do an internship and/or work a job during your time in college.
