Background Studies

DeVos CenterThe Foundation courses were developed to help you. Many of our MSA students are from non-business backgrounds.

The courses are designed to give you the business basics in an accelerated format.  Most are 2 credits and meet either the first or second half of a semester. You may be exempted from some or all of this course work based on previous course work or an exemption exam. Preparations for an exam may include professional experience or self-study. The exams are available through the Graduate Business office.
