We also have some great NEW programs this year, in Event and Sport Management , Management, and Marketing, and a joint Business Information Systems program offered jointly with our Computer Science department.  The Event Management track focuses on managing of events in all types of venues – business, non-profit, cultural, tourist, and sport.  This is a fast-growing area of specialty that allows us to utilize the unique qualities of cultural and tourist businesses in the Berkshires, bringing local experts into our classrooms and putting our students into internships with those organizations.  The Sport Management track was developed in response to student demand and faculty interest as well as the increasing visibility of various levels of sport in the Berkshires and the nation.  Our new Marketing and Management concentrations are more flexible than most programs in those areas, allowing students to gear their program to their own interests. 

Nearby we have internationally known businesses and organizations - as well as successful local businesses - that provide our students with outstanding internship opportunities. Our institution's liberal arts mission means that our graduates have extensive work in developing communication and problem-solving skills, skills which are transferable to whatever professional or civic activity in which you may become involved in the 'real world.' We also have minor programs in Business Administration and in Economics for students with other majors who wish to have a base of knowledge and skills in business.
