Considering not only the pursuit of profit but rewarding corporate management as well

Business administration applies to "companies (profit-oriented organizations)" that produce and sell goods and services. Its study cultivates the managerial skills for efficiently and effectively utilizing such management resources as "people, goods, capital and information" in order to advance an organization. The focus is placed on various matters that support management, such as the provision of goods and services and the workplace environment, and also the mastery of such knowledge as bookkeeping, accounting and information processing that are required in corporate management. Business administration at OUC involves consideration not only for the pursuit of profits but of overall management that is able to satisfy the majority of the people and the community that are connected to that organization.

Features

1. Consider rewarding corporate management that is not limited to the pursuit of profits

The purpose of corporate management is essentially the pursuit of profits through the utilization of management resources like "people, goods, capital and information". In the Department of Management, while acquiring theoretical and practical knowledge on the management of these management resources, students study management in order not only to provide goods and services in pursuit of profits but so that the community, along with the global environment, is rewarded as well.

2. Polish managerial skills and a sense for managing an organization

In order to acquire a wide range of knowledge according to their own awareness of the issues while also deepening their specialization related to business administration, "Corporate Management" teaches students the structure, organization and management of a company, while "Bookkeeping, Accounting, and Information Processing" educates them on the management of corporate sales and profits, the knowledge of the information industry, and information processing technology, etc.

3. Encourage a global outlook and entrepreneur's spirit

"Business administration" is not a field solely for those who aim at becoming a manager or entrepreneur. This discipline, which is said to bring together elements of various realms of study, such as economics, psychology, law, and mathematics, is a science that is useful in wide ranging scenes of social life. The global outlook and spirit of entrepreneurship that are supported in the Department of Management at OUC are characteristics that everyone needs to survive in today's society.
