ASU has new concentrations coming within BA degree: The BA in Business with a Concentration in Chinese Language and Culture and a BA in Business with a Concentration in Spanish Language and Culture.

It was noted that these BA?s are very challenging and there are no excess electives.

WPC is getting ready to offer six BA concentrations through the Online program: Communication, Global Leadership, Global Logistics, Sustainability, Food Industry Management, Retail Management. Retail Management is a new program only available online with course work in agribusiness, supply chain, marketing, and management.
