On campusThe Business & Technology major infuses technology and analytics into a broad and flexible management education, empowering students to immediately create impact in any industry.
Watch more student spotlights to see what current students are saying about the programs.
Students select a business concentration in one of five areas — finance, marketing, information systems, economics or international business. Technology training is reinforced through a separate concentration that trains students in highly specialized areas using curriculum outside the business school in a number of fields, from engineering and science to humanities. Examples of the technology concentrations include Computer Science, Biotechnology and Green Technology.
Students complete the B&T major with a thorough understanding of how technology can be leveraged to think differently about problems and opportunities in any industry.
Our largest major allows you to pair your passion for business — marketing, management, accounting, quantitative finance and beyond — with a concentration of your choice, from the arts, to engineering, to computer science. In addition to being recruited by some of the largest Fortune 500 companies, like Goldman Sachs, Deloitte, KPMG and Citi, B&T graduates go on to manage their own entrepreneurial ventures.
All students pursuing a major in Business & Technology complete two concentrations — one in business and another in technology.
