Professional Studies

The Professional Studies program is not structured to be part of the Business Group, and therefore is not included in its ACBSP accreditation.

This is a capstone program for adult students who wish to complete their college education. This program is designed to enhance workplace skills such as planning, workflow management, problem solving, listening and communication, labor/management relations and motivation techniques.

• 33 credits of CORE Curriculum courses

A minimum of 120 credits is required for graduation, the last 30 of which must be earned at La Roche University.
