Contemporary American Business Practices
This certificate prepares you for an MBA or a career in Finance, Accounting, or management. Designed for
individuals who want to become familiar with the processes, routines, and practices of modern business, this
program is relevant for domestic and international students who are interested in beginning or enhancing a
career in business, preparing for business school, or getting introduced to the world of business. All classes
meet Monday–Thursday evenings. For international students, this full-time, 18-hour-per-week program meets
the requirements for an I-20 “certificate of eligibility” and allows students to apply for an F-1 student visa.
Upon successful completion of this program, students may apply for Optional Practical Training (OPT), which is
