The undergraduate and graduate programs of the College of Business Administration are accredited by AACSB -- The International Association for Management Education. AACSB accreditation assures quality and promotes excellence and continuous improvement in undergraduate and graduate education for business administration.

The College of Business Administration provides ten options leading to the Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration. It also provides curricula leading to the Master of Business Administration and the Master of Science in Business Administration. The Master of Science degree offers an option in Information Systems Auditing. Information concerning the master's curricula may be found in the graduate listings.

The undergraduate programs of study give the student an understanding of the social and economic environment in which we live and provide a common body of knowledge for all students who specialize in any business field. In addition, each option emphasizes, with additional course-work, specific areas of knowledge useful for the career paths served by that option. All students are encouraged to experiment and broaden their interests by selection of electives. It is the purpose of the College of Business Administration to develop in students the people, technical, and managerial competence necessary for successful performance in business, industry, government, and education.

The student assumes primary responsibility for meeting the educational requirements of the program. Through early studies in the Business Administration core courses, the student has an opportunity to evaluate a career decision and to adjust goals, if necessary. Undergraduate courses in business fundamentals and skills equip the student with marketable entry skills. The student may augment on-campus education through job experiences in business senior projects and internship programs for which the student will receive academic credit. General education courses are integrated throughout each program. Co-curricular opportunities related to the course of study include the Cal Poly Pomona Society of Accountants; American Marketing Association; American Production and Inventory Control Society; Delta Sigma Pi, a professional business fraternity; Finance Society; Latino Business Students Association; M.B.A. Association; Management Information Systems Student Association; Personnel and Industrial Relations Association; Pi Sigma Epsilon; American Society for Quality; International Facility Management Association; Society for Advancement of Management; Society of Law and Contracts; World Traders; Alpha Iota Delta, and Mu Kappa Tau, Beta Gamma Sigma, business honorary societies.

MISSION STATEMENT

The Computer Information Systems Department views its mission as complementary to those of the College of Business Administration and the University. The Department is committed to providing opportunities to a diverse and multicultural student body for quality education in Computer Information Systems at the undergraduate and graduate levels, with particular emphasis on undergraduate preparation. This commitment also extends to the provision of support courses for other departments of the College of Business Administration so as to enhance their understanding of the increasingly critical role of information systems and information technology in organizations.

The Department's academic programs enable students to obtain an in-depth specialization in one of several critical areas of the Information Systems field, and also to achieve a broad understanding of the general knowledge necessary to become an effective practitioner in this field. Both the areas of specialization and general information systems knowledge are oriented towards the cutting edge of technology as practiced by and implemented in industry. The commitment of the department to master's level education provides quality support in both general and specialized areas of the field. At both the graduate and undergraduate levels, our programs seek to emphasize the effective and practical application of the principles of Computer Information Systems to support the operational, tactical, and strategic objectives of the organizations with which our students will be associated and to emphasize the quality professional communication skills which permit our students to attain a mastery of group dynamics in professional settings.

In support of the essential aspects of the Department's mission, the Department strives for a strong practical orientation for its faculty and students which is based upon and promoted by access to state-of-the-art hardware and software for use by students and faculty in the classroom and for research. The Department also strives to retain the technical currency of faculty through links with industry and continued research and consulting. To ensure that faculty have strong skills in working with industry, all new faculty are required to have substantial business experience in the profession prior to employment with the Department. The student body also is afforded this technical currency through aggressive and continuous monitoring and upgrading of course offerings to reflect the dynamics of the information systems field.

The Cal Poly Pomona approach to computer information systems is unique in the field of computer education in several ways. First, the computer information systems courses are integrated with a fundamental core of business administration courses to meet the needs of the major job markets, business, and government. Second, the program concentrates on the practical application of how to use the computer to help solve management problems, rather than the engineering aspects of how to design the internal workings of a computer. Third, the program is designed with the students in mind--they are prepared not only for well-paid employment but also a lifetime of learning and professional growth.

A student specializing in computer information systems will become prepared to seek employment in a variety of computer-related positions such as programmer, systems analyst, database administrator, web developer, telecommunications analyst, project leader, data processing manager, and information center manager, consultant, or product specialist.

The Computer Information Systems Department offers two minors: Business Computer Programming and Managerial Computing. Students majoring in technical fields that involve the use of the computer may wish to develop adjunct skills that may prove to be complementary to their major course of study. Those interested in enrolling in either of these minors should see the Department Chair, Building 98, Room C4-11, (909) 869-3235.

Department Policy on Academic Disqualification

The Computer Information Systems Department may disqualify students with an option in Computer Information Systems at the end of any quarter if either of the following requirements are not met: (1) their overall GPA, Cal Poly Pomona GPA, or their option GPA is below 2.0 by 7 grade points or more or (2) more than one-third of the units taken during the past twelve-month period do not satisfy the degree requirement. Determination of the GPA in the option and proportion of courses taken to satisfy the degree requirements is the responsibility of the department.

Further, the department has an additional policy on satisfactory progress. Specifically, if students fail to complete a Computer Information Systems course required of all CIS students with a grade of C or better, they will have an advising hold placed on their records. For this purpose, a "W" does not count as a try, but a "U" does. To release the hold, students must see the Department's Chair (i.e., Probationary student advisor). Students who do not achieve a grade of C or better in a required CIS course in two attempts will be strongly counseled to seek a more suitable option.

MISSION STATEMENT

The FRL Department seeks to prepare undergraduate students in Finance, Real Estate, and Law and MBA students for careers in finance, real estate, and contract management with up-to-date curricula and instructional methods. In addition, the FRL Department provides all other students within the College of Business Administration and throughout the university with a variety of introductory and specialized courses in finance, real estate, business law, and contract management. The department is also committed to enhancing the intellectual capital of its faculty and maintaining strong links with business/government through research, writing, consulting, and participation in academic and professional meetings, and other development activities.

Students select one of the three emphasis areas that best meets their career objectives: Finance, Real Estate, or Business Law and Contract Management.

The Finance emphasis offers courses on the theory and methods of financial analysis and valuation, corporate financial management, the management of financial institutions, securities analysis, and multinational finance.

The Real Estate emphasis focuses on real estate brokerage, mortgage lending, residential and commercial appraising, and real property investment/development.

The Business Law and Contract Management emphasis helps prepare students for law school and for careers as contract administrators and contract cost/price analysts.

The Department offers four minors: Finance, Real Estate, Business Law, and Financial Management of Public and Private Contracts to non-FRL students

The minor in real estate is formulated to qualify the student with the requisite courses to sit for the real estate broker's examination.

The minor in business law encompasses the study of the legal environment of business.

MISSION STATEMENT

The mission of the International Business and Marketing Department is to prepare students for specialized careers in either international business or marketing management. This preparation gives both undergraduate and graduate students practical learning experiences in such courses as international marketing, marketing management, professional selling, advertising, buyer behavior, market research, retailing, industrial marketing, brand management, and transportation and distribution management. In addition, the mission of the Department is to give non-majors a solid foundation in the application of business principles to the marketing of goods and services in international and domestic markets. To achieve excellence in both teaching and course content for an increasingly diverse and multinational student body, the Department's faculty undertakes programs of basic research, applied scholarship, and instructional development; it also forges and maintains strong links with the business community, both local and global.

INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS OPTION

The International Business option provides students a solid grounding in the principles of business management as well as interdisciplinary specialization in areas required to understand and react to today's globalized markets. The objectives of this option are twofold: to provide students with the business knowledge and skills essential for careers in international business; and to provide them with an understanding and appreciation of the culture, language, economics, politics, and history of other parts of the world, with particular emphasis on a geographic area in which the student has a special career interest. The curriculum requires completion of the business core which provides to all business majors a foundation in the theory and practice of modern business management. In addition, the International Business option requires completion of a minor in a functional area of business (e.g. accounting, finance, management, etc.) or, as an alternative to a minor in business, an option in International Studies directed electives or a foreign language. Each student completes a specialization in a geographic area of the world, and must demonstrate proficiency in a related foreign language. Each student is expected to complete at least one quarter of practical experience in international business through the internship program.

Each student should work closely with the program advisor in identifying career goals and selecting course work most appropriate for goal attainment. The International Business option involves the completion of requirements in each of the following seven areas:

1. Core Courses in Major required of all Business majors

2. International Business required courses

3. Support and Elective courses

4. Functional Specialization

5. Regional Area of Emphasis directed electives

6. General Education

MINOR IN LOGISTICS

The Logistics Minor, offered by the International Business and Marketing Department, is the only program of its kind in the California State University system. The Logistics Minor was developed to allow Business Administration majors or students majoring in non-business programs to gain the knowledge and skills needed to gain entry-level employment in the field of transportation, warehousing, logistics, planning, materials management, and physical distribution. In addition to the job opportunities that are available in the domestic arena, openings also exist in the international arena. Demand greatly exceeds supply both nationally and internationally for logistics managers.

Students from any major may participate in the minor in Logistics. Core courses in a student's major (Column 1 of the Degree Requirements Evaluation Worksheet) which are required in this minor must be replaced with substitute courses on the basis of individual petitions. For example, a Technology and Operations Management student would have to substitute another course for TOM 332 in order to complete a Minor in Logistics because TOM 332 is a required core course for all Technology and Operations Management students.

For more information, students should contact the chair of the International Business and Marketing Department, Building 94, Room 236, Extension 2436.

MISSION STATEMENT

The department's mission is consonant with and supportive of the College of Business Administration mission statement. With its special emphases on teaching undergraduates and focusing on applied research and instructional development, the MHR Department also seeks prominence within domestic and international communities in teaching and life-long learning.

The teaching strengths of the department's faculty, which are embedded in the courses, include the capacity for critical thinking, skills for working with people, ability to respond creatively to changes, making ethical choices, managing diversity, strategic management, and applying the theories and concepts learned to design practical and innovative solutions. These strengths address leading-edge knowledge and education.

This option provides students with the opportunity to pursue an emphasis in one of several areas: general management, entrepreneurship and small business management, human resources management, not-for-profit management and business education.

Department advisors strive to provide programs that meet the educational needs of students who have the following career goals:

1. General manager in a private or public organization of any size.

2. Manager of a small or medium-sized business. (This program is designed specifically for people who plan to own and operate their own businesses.)

3. Human resources or personnel manager in a private or public organization.

4. Manager of a not-for-profit organization.

5. Business teacher at the secondary or community college level.

All department programs are designed to provide maximum flexibility in selecting an area of specialty. For example, a freshman can pursue the department curriculum for two years before making a career goal decision. In fact, after two years of study, the student can change to any of the business administration options without loss of academic credits. It is important that students entering Cal Poly Pomona for the first time seek the help of an advisor to ensure that their individual programs are in their own best interest.

Students interested in fulfilling California State credential requirements for secondary school teachers of business subjects must also coordinate their curriculum with a College of Education advisor.

The operations function of a business is responsible for planning, coordinating, and supervising the production and distribution of the services and goods provided by the organization. The student in the Technology and Operations Management option will learn the concepts and skills needed to manage the operations function and to help business achieve continuous improvement in productivity and in the quality of services and goods produced.

MISSION STATEMENT

The Technology and Operations Management Department aims to provide an education to its students that will enable them to become successful managers in the business world of the 21st century. Through its curriculum, the department concentrates on helping students develop competencies in critical thinking, technical and business integration skills.

To prepare students for managerial positions in the 21st century, the department focuses on the role of technology and scientific management methods. Heavy emphasis is placed on the study of computer applications for helping managers plan, analyze information, make decisions, and communicate,

SPECIALIZATIONS

The option prepares the graduate for careers managing service and manufacturing operations in small and large companies, national and international businesses, not-for-profit institutions, and government. Students in the Technology and Operations Management option are provided a broad background to the field, after which they choose one of the following areas of specialization:

Production Operations Management

The Production Operations Management area of emphasis focuses on manufacturing operations, although many of the skills learned are applicable in a non-manufacturing environment. The production function of an organization includes a number of career specialties such as: production planning and control, purchasing, materials management, inventory control, project and program management, quality management, facilities design and layout, work methods improvement, production systems analysis, the scheduling of production processes, and the delivery of goods and services.

Service Operations Management

The Service Operations Management area of emphasis focuses on the improvement of service (non-manufacturing) organizations through the understanding of business strategies, processes, technology, and change. The subjects which make up the core of this area are: operations analysis and problem-definition, computer-aided decision-making, project management, quality management, forecasting, capacity planning, and scheduling. Heavy emphasis is placed on the design, presentation, and communication of information using the computer. Through careful selection of electives, this area of emphasis allows the student to combine the study of service operations with a sub-specialization in another area, such as facilities management, financial management, logistics, management science, marketing, production management, project management, small business management, and telecommunications.

Management of Technology

The Management of Technology area of emphasis focuses on the planning, development, and implementation of technological capabilities. Coursework in this area will provide students with an integrated view of the principal aspects of technology management. Students will gain knowledge and skills in the following core areas: identification and evaluation of technological operations, implementation of new technologies, management of information technology, management of collaborative research, and management of technology-transfer activities.

There are elective courses within each of these specializations. A department advisor will help students choose electives that are compatible with their career interests.

The department sponsors student chapters of the American Production and Inventory Control Society, the American Society for Quality, and the International Facilities Management Association. Students are encouraged to join these organizations to learn more about the practice of technology and operations management.
