With this education, an individual has a wide range of career opportunities or may proceed on to graduate school. Individuals may change careers later in life with minimal retraining required.<\/p>\n<p>Business Management: ESU has offered the Bachelor of Science degree in business management since 1986. The department maintains full-time academically-qualified faculty and part-time professionally-qualified faculty to teach in the program.
