The Bachelor of Science in Business Management degree program may be completed at Northwest either by attending traditional campus-based classes or by participating in Northwest's Web-based online degree program. Northwest has entered into several articulation agreements with community colleges in Missouri, Colorado, Iowa, Nebraska, Oklahoma and Kansas. If a student has not completed an AAS degree in business from an articulated community college program, the student will need to work closely with a Northwest advisor in business management to determine the best course of action to take in order to achieve their academic goals.

projects prepared me to work in the business world. The variety of
