Department of Management

Overview

The Department of Management offers a variety of courses designed to meet the needs of students interested in careers in management, management consulting, and entrepreneurship.

The department offers a number of courses of interest to undergraduate students. These courses support the undergraduate business program and satisfy requirements of the college's Global Management Certificate (PDF) and the entrepreneurship concentration.

At the MBA level, the management department supports the Oregon MBA's specializations in innovation and entrepreneurship and sustainable business practices, as well as provides two of the core courses that all MBA students take in their first year.

The management PhD focuses on two domains: organization studies and strategic management. Organization studies examines the interrelationships among organizational behavior, competitive and institutional settings, and firm performance. Strategic management studies competitive and collaborative interactions between organizations as well as internal organizational dimensions.
