• to acquire competency in the use of computers and other forms of technology;

• to acquire competency in quantitative skills;

• to develop problem solving skills;

• to develop communication and interpersonal skills;

• to develop an ethical sensitivity in a business context;

• to develop a multicultural/international business perspective; and

These goals are implemented by offering challenging courses, by providing internship opportunities with local businesses and agencies, and by sponsoring guest speakers and seminars on campus to define the role and future of women in business.
