Business and Economics Online

The Business and Economics Division is in the process of planning its Spring 2006 course schedule, which will include traditional, alternative and online courses. The division currently offers classes on Saturday and would like to continue doing so in upcoming semesters.

In addition to the schedule, a proposal for an Entrepreneurship Certificate has been completed. The undergraduate certificate would require the following courses: Introduction to Entrepreneurship, Managing and Marketing the Small Business, Entrepreneurship Financing, and Information and Accounting for New Ventures.

“The division is very excited about the new proposal, and believes that through these new programs can further expand service to West Virginia University at Parkersburg,” says Sy Sakarat, chair of the Business Division.

The curricular will be available to students upon completion. More information can be obtained in Room 1018.
