To thrive in today’s challenging marketplace, businesses need attentive managers and inspirational leaders, people who can motivate employees and meet the ever-changing expectations of customers.
While technical skills can be critical in landing an entry-level job, the management and leadership major is designed to support your unique professional goals and is only offered as a second major. The program complements the disciplinary knowledge and skills of the student’s primary major in accounting, finance, international business, business systems and analytics, or marketing, or a minor in risk management. A minor in management and leadership can also be designed by students majoring in a non-business field.
Our program develops essential management and leadership skills via courses in leadership, team building, influence, interpersonal communication, and organizational analysis. Students cultivate leadership skills individually then work closely with professors on a plan to enhance their skills. Internships and co-ops provide real-world learning.
Our faculty are mentors who help students pursue their specific interests—whether they aspire to a career in manufacturing or financial services, entertainment marketing, or exporting and importing. Students also learn from talented professionals who visit campus to share real-world experiences.
Students graduate from La Salle prepared to:

I am inspired every day by the contributions our students make to the community. I am energized by how our University—as well as others—are reinventing themselves during challenging times to ensure that future generations can receive a high-quality education that prepares them for a lifetime of success and opportunities.
