Our Curriculum
Our business program understands the challenges facing women in the work force. Our curriculum is
designed to educate women to be critical thinkers and creative problem solvers in a fast-changing global and technological environment. Our required internships offer a valuable opportunity for hands-on
learning and a personal evaluation of career options. Chatham business women develop current
knowledge and confidence to enter, succeed, and lead in a field of their choice.
The structure of the curriculum begins with a set of core courses which study the basic functions of
business and describe the environment in which business operates. Six courses in management,
microeconomics, marketing, finance, and accounting (2 courses) introduce students to today’s business
environment, strategy, the design and operations of business organizations, decision-making , marketing
principles, sources and methods of financing business ventures, and internal controls. Two courses in
macroeconomics and business law/ethics promote an understanding of the environment in which business
operates.
Building on the foundation of women’s leadership development, entrepreneurial thinking, environmental sustainability (woven into segments), and an international focus in the eight introductory business courses, the curriculum has two advanced courses that specifically develop these themes. These two signature courses on leadership in a changing environment and entrepreneurship hone leadership and problem solving skills and prepare students to further their studies in graduate school or pursue a professional career.
Concentrations offered are accounting, management, marketing, international business and economics.
