UNC's business school is a professional
school within a liberal arts university. Apart
from most majors requiring a strong liberal
arts course background, the business school
forces students to concentrate on business
courses. Some people have questioned
whether this affects the students' ability to
be good future leaders as well as business
people.
"The business school's objective is to give
students a general business education," said
Elizabeth McGowan, Assistant Dean of the
Undergraduate Business Program. "We don't
specifically narrow it down to one area. We
give them the basics so they'work well and
have a lot to offer the business community."
Most, of the student's experience comes
from working out in the business world. The
liberal arts plays its role while, here at the
University, she added.
The business school, like other majors,
must fulfill the two year General College
curriculum. Of the 20 courses, five of them
-must be business courses: two in accounting,
two in economics and one in business statis
tics. The junior and senior years require 11 to
13 of the final 20 courses to be in business.
Required electives include one oral and
one written course in English communica
tion and starting this fall, all business stu
dents will be required to take a business
writing class, McGowen said. Remaining
electives in non-business areas can be ori
ented more towards business than liberal
arts Business English instead of British
Literature, for example.
"We recommend that the students get as
broad a background as possible, particularly
in a concentrated area. Computer science,
math, journalism and foreign lanjage are
skills that are necessary in the business
world, though all liberal arts areas are bene
ficial. We stress the concentration as it is
more beneficial to have an added specialty
area, although the student has the option to
select their own choices within the set re
quirements' added McGowan.
Professor' Jeff ery Obler of the political
science department was not so enamored
with the balance in the undergraduate cur
riculum. . "-
"Liberal arts is important to all students
and they should acquire a strong background
in those areas," he said. "The business stu
dents should get the opportunity to take
more liberal arts classes instead of three in a
concentrated area such as marketing. Most
students will learn the greatest experience
once they are in the job, but they won't learn
about the liberal arts to the same degree."
