Management
The degree in Management emphasizes broad management
competencies in finance, marketing, human resources, economics, law,

management careers in high-tech industries, manufacturing, banking and
finance, health care, communications, service industries, and non-profit
organizations. According to the National Association of Colleges and Employers in the Job Outlook, management is in the top five degrees in demand.
