Management is more than planning, organizing and controlling resources; it is the direction of human effort in all facets of business, industry and government. Therefore, in addition to human resource management, the program focuses on global organizational behavior, international business and strategic leadership. Electives may be chosen from accounting, economics, entrepreneurship, information and technology management, and marketing.

Students in the program consult with local businesses and nonprofit organizations as part of a semester-long project. By helping organizations solve real-life problems, students gain vital skills on how to assess organizations' operations and competitive environments.

Management majors have held internships at Bank of America, Raymond James Financial, Walt Disney World and the Port of Tampa, to name a few.

Alumni from the program are employed in management, consulting and human resource staff positions by Citigroup, Jabil Circuit, KPMG, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Tech Data, TECO Energy and Verizon, among others. Furthermore, graduates of management often enroll in prestigious graduate and law schools.
