• About 18 percent of our undergraduates earn a “Management Studies Certificate,” preparing them for business opportunities while complementing academic undertakings in liberal arts, engineering or other disciplines.  The certificate requires completion of courses taught by faculty of the College and of the William E. Simon Graduate School of Business Administration.  Core courses within statistics, computer science, economics and accounting are supplemented by specialized “track” courses in Accounting/Finance, Public Sector Analysis, Personnel Management, Marketing, Production, and Information Systems.
