In the Department of Business and Economics, you will be immersed in real-world, practical, experience-based learning across a range of courses and disciplines. You will also have access to professional expertise, all while honing the critical thinking and problem-solving skills the world of business needs.
In addition to at least one required internship, every student has numerous opportunities to engage in high-impact, hands-on learning through such programs as:
- FIRE Week: This year's trip will take students to the New York City to network with accomplished Wittenberg alumni working in diverse business and government fields, all while gaining invaluable insights into potential careers and building connections that could shape your future. Last year, students traveled to Austin, Texas, to learn about entrepreneurship and start-up success.
- Tiger Ventures: A business incubator, and one of many places and organizations where that “outside of the classroom” learning happens, Tiger Ventures helps students thrive. Where there are gaps in a marketplace, there are opportunities to do business. Who would be better to see those gaps in the marketplace than the students themselves? Who is better to open and run those businesses than students? Check out Sip's Coffee Bar and Tiger Fuel, the first two Tiger Venture.
- Tiger Tank: A modified version of the hit TV series "Shark Tank," students are able to develop their own idea for a product, service, business or non-profit venture and apply to have an opportunity to receive help from business faculty and staff to further develop their idea. The culminating event is the chance to pitch their idea to successful Wittenberg alumni for potential investments.
How Our Program Works
Wittenberg offers courses across the spectrum of business, including accounting, finance, entrepreneurship, leadership and management, marketing, law, human resources, international business, logistics and operations. Through a combination of electives and targeted applied-business experiences, both within the business department and throughout the University, each student can craft an experience that uniquely meets his or her personal and professional goals.
In the context of a liberal arts education, the study of business is enhanced as students are challenged to integrate and sometimes reconcile many different perspectives. Many students combine their business major with a major and/or minor in another area. The resulting diversity, with many students pursuing unique academic combinations, enhances class discussions and equips graduates with greater adaptability, empathy and vision. Students quickly learn that many problems are more complex than they may initially appear. Over time, this awareness changes how they approach problems altogether. Our students are challenged to build their capacity to tackle problems that are often without a clear answer.
Wittenberg prepares business majors to embrace exploration, change and challenges in new ways that reveal solutions both innovative and valuable. In the words of one business alumnus, "Wittenberg develops well-rounded, out-of-the-box thinkers, who can not only paint a vision and design a path to achieve it, but can also inspire others to make big things happen."
