Opportunities With Impact: Business Administration

Learning about the complex and dynamic world of business requires real experience. Our Business Administration Program is committed to ensuring you have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the field, take risks and understand the foundational concepts with hands-on experiences inside and outside the classroom.

On The Job Experience

Understand the workplace.

Discover how it feels to do the work yourself in a wide variety of job shadowing, externship and internship experiences.

Excellent placement in internships and externships will provide you unparalleled opportunities to learn more about your future career and what inspires you. A supportive course structure built around for-credit internships will ensure you’re getting the most out of your internship. This structure provides the chance to reflect on your experience, problem-solve with an instructor and peers and understand the ways that classroom theory applies to the workplace.

Collaborate with Professionals

Learn by doing.

In the Business Administration Program, we embrace active learning opportunities where you will have the chance to consult with businesses or non-profit organizations and manage client relationships.

Our program provides opportunities to partner with local businesses, community and professional organizations or hear from alumni who can share invaluable advice and experiences. You’ll develop strategic thinking through in-class simulation games and explore a broad perspective of the many pathways available after graduation.

Study Away

Adopt a global perspective.

Students studying within the Department of Accounting, Business, Economics and Finance have a unique opportunity to travel to the Netherlands on a Muhlenberg faculty-led semester that focuses on Business and Economics in Europe.

Made possible through the Center for European Studies at Maastricht University, this program takes place during the fall semester of your junior year. Students learn about European business, economics and politics in courses taught in English.

This program can help you deepen your global and cultural awareness and provides the chance for visits to nearby France, Belgium and Germany to meet business and political leaders from these countries.

Students can also benefit from the domestic study away opportunity in our Washington Seminar, where participants can live and work in Washington D.C. for a semester in a program made possible through a cohort of Lutheran colleges.
