Get directly admitted to our College of Business Administration and start preparing to be a global business leader from your first day of classes. Here, you'll maximize your marketability as a professional by studying abroad for a semester or year, becoming proficient in a foreign language and choosing a second business major. Ours is the only program in the country to combine all of these elements in an undergraduate program. And our focus on developing skills to navigate language and cultural issues in business environments ensures you're not just ready for the challenges of today's global economy but also poised to make a positive impact.
Now, more than ever, the world demands business professionals who are not only good at what they do but who are honest, transparent and ethical. At Marquette, ethics and social responsibility will permeate everything you learn and do — we’ve been offering a values-based business education since 1910.
