  • College of Business and Industry

    The MSUM College of Business & Industry prepares students for fulfilling and productive careers in the fields of Accounting, Business, Finance, Computer Science and Information Systems, Mass Communications, Paralegal, Operations Management, and Construction Management.

    Our students learn from faculty members who have the highest qualifications in their field, several of whom have business and industry experience.  Many of these faculty members publish and present scholarly and creative activities related to their teaching areas. Students engage with faculty and the community by conducting research, producing award-winning programs and documentaries, participating in competitions, and taking part in service projects.

    Several of the programs in the College of Business and Industry are accredited by national and international accreditation agencies, including the School of Business, Paralegal, Operations Management, and Construction Management.

    Our students are provided with a solid academic foundation that prepares graduates to advance professionally and personally. They enter high-demand professions with the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed.

    I invite you to learn more about what the College of Business and Industry has to offer. Please explore our website for more information about specific programs, or contact me via email with your questions and comments.
