The Martha and Spencer Love School of Business strives to provide exceptional learning experiences that facilitate the transformation of students into knowledgeable, responsible business professionals and leaders who make a difference in their professions, their organizations and the global economy. 

The school is accredited by AACSB International – The Association for the Advancement of Collegiate Schools of Business.

There are seven departments in the Martha and Spencer Love School of Business. Students who choose Accounting and Economics will receive a B.S. degree and an A.B. degree respectively. Please click on the following links to see the requirements for all majors.

 

The Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (B.S.B.A.) degree program begins with a solid grounding in the traditional liberal arts and sciences. This preparation is an integral part of becoming an informed, responsible and capable business leader. An Elon education emphasizes the development of the whole person – mind, body and spirit. The B.S.B.A. courses at Elon advance that commitment by emphasizing business knowledge acquisition, skill development through hands-on learning and experiential activities, and the development of discipline, integrity and an ethic of service.

The B.S.B.A degree offers six majors: Economic Consulting, Entrepreneurship, Finance, International Business, Management and Marketing. Students majoring in one of these areas take courses in a common core representing the functional business disciplines (e.g. accounting, economics, finance, management, marketing, etc.). Our coursework emphasizes active learning and appreciative inquiry. Rather than dictate a set of principles to be memorized, our programs emphasize the integration of business knowledge and the application of that knowledge to organizational problems. We encourage hands-on learning through internships, co-op experiences, service learning and classroom instruction that engages students in the study and practice of business. Students also develop skills in written and oral communications, team-building, problem solving and decision-making in our increasingly global business environment.

The B.S.B.A. degree program at Elon emphasizes academic challenge, mature intellectual development and a lifetime of learning. Our graduates go on to leadership positions in business and industry in for-profit and not-for-profit organizations. Our graduates are prepared for a variety of assignments because they possess an extensive array of knowledge, skills and abilities.
