BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION - MARKETING DIPLOMA PROGRAM (part-time DE)
PLEASE NOTE: Some of the Business Administration Diploma courses will have to be taken on-campus at Algonquin College as not all of the courses are available through Distance Education at this time.
The Business Administration program provides students with the business expertise and employable skills required for a rewarding career. In the six levels of study, students gain a solid foundation in all of the business functions, as well as the communication, planning, teamwork, and analytical skills that are in high demand by the business community. Through an active advisory committee of business professionals and close relationships with employers, the program is continuously updated to meet the current demands of today's organizations. These relationships provide students with networking opportunities, as well as bringing business people into the classroom to share their experiences.
In the first three levels, students learn the fundamentals of business. In the final three levels, students select their major area of study from the following Majors: Accounting, General Business, Human Resources, and Marketing.
The Business Administration Program is available on a part-time and full-time basis online. For full-time admission requirements, please refer to www.algonquincollege.com/distance/program_courses/programs.html
Students in the part-time diploma may transfer into the full-time program and all part-time courses credited are applied to the full-time program.
The Marketing Major provides students with an in-depth knowledge of a wide range of marketing and business administration skills that allows them to pursue a marketing or sales position in both the business-to-consumer and business-to-business industry sectors. The Marketing Major focuses on preparing graduates with the creativity, analytical, and decision-making skills required for rewarding careers as marketing managers, marketing researchers, brand managers, marketing communications managers, and sales professionals.
During the final three levels of the Business-Administration program, students majoring in Marketing learn to make strategic decisions regarding product, distribution, pricing, marketing communications, sales, and marketing research in both traditional and e-business environments. In their final year, students have the opportunity to participate in the prestigious Ontario Colleges Marketing Competition (OCMC) and culminate their college learning experience by organizing a professional industry networking event.
