Lead with Confidence. Build Stronger Organizations.
If you see yourself leading teams, guiding strategy, and helping organizations succeed, the Tippie BBA in Management will give you the tools to make it happen.
You’ll study how organizations function—and more importantly, how you can make them better. Know what else it provides? The skills employers look for—leadership, strategic thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving—while learning how to motivate teams, manage performance, resolve conflict, and make smart decisions.
Two tracks, one solid foundation
In addition to providing the core business disciplines of accounting, economics, finance, and marketing, Tippie’s BBA in management offers two career-specific tracks that let you tailor your education to your personal goals.
Human resource management
Prepares you to recruit, develop, and train a business’s greatest asset—its people.
Leadership and management
Gets you ready to be the go-to person, whether it’s running a project, a team, or an entire office.
“I've learned a lot just from people's experiences, faculty experiences, and their stories. Knowing that there are real-world applications for what they're telling students gives me a lot of confidence going into the workforce.”
