Mission

The mission of The Honors Business and Liberal Arts (BALA) Minor program is to bridge academics with leadership, business, and professional skill development for undergraduate students majoring in any discipline.

BALA promotes critical thinking, problem solving, teamwork, oral and written communication, and intercultural fluency in the workplace — skills valued in any career path. Students will develop management and leadership expertise and will learn the skills necessary to serve as responsible citizens driven by integrity and respect in our diverse, global society.

Wide-ranging internships, professional mentors, and career planning workshops are integral elements in this demanding, multidisciplinary minor.

BALA is more than just a program on how to succeed in business. It seeks to help students succeed in life in an increasingly business-centric world. Whatever your future goals, BALA can help you achieve them.

In BALA, our business is students.
