Why choose Rivier’s Applied Business Management degree?
Rivier’s Applied B.S. in Business Management is a three-year, 90 credit degree program that will prepare you to excel as a leader and innovator in today’s competitive global business environment.
Maximize your return on investment when you save a full year of costs and related expenses while gaining an added year of earning income following graduation.
What is a three-year applied bachelor’s degree?
Unlike accelerated degrees where students graduate early by taking classes year-round, students in the three-year applied bachelor’s degree program carry a regular semester load of classes during the fall and spring semesters for a total of 90 credits over three years (six semesters) compared to 120 credits over four years (eight semesters). The 90-credit format streamlines general education requirements and focuses on the major’s essential courses and core requirements. Learn more about the three-year applied bachelor’s degree.
Rivier also offers a four-year (120 credit) bachelor’s degree in Business Management. Students enrolled in a three-year applied bachelor’s degree program may switch to the four-year bachelor’s degree program.
