School Of Business
Dean of the School of Business: Ron Galloway
The mission of the School of Business at Northwest Nazarene University is to educate students for the purpose of developing ethical servant leaders who can transform a global society for the kingdom of Christ. We accomplish this goal by providing a strong, scholarly business curriculum rooted in the liberal arts tradition, which is delivered through traditional and innovative programs. To this end, the program is designed with the following measurable objectives:
- Students will be provided with instruction necessary to increase their knowledge and to encourage academic excellence across a range of contemporary business subjects, including accounting, economics, finance, management, information technology, operations, international business environment, law, ethics, marketing and communication.
- Students will experience activities that facilitate development of skills relevant to and which encourage creative engagement with the contemporary business environment. These skills will include teamwork, qualitative and quantitative analysis, written and oral communication, use of technology, and decisionmaking.
- Students will be involved in activities which will enhance their ability to work with Christlike character in a variety of business environments. Aspects of Christlike character addressed will include business ethics, social responsibility, workplace respect, and legal compliance.
Students in the Department of Business and Economics may pursue an Accounting major or a Business Administration major. Students pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Business may choose to pursue a Management of Information Systems emphasis. Alternatively, many Business majors will choose to pursue a specialization through a business related minor.
