Business management, economics, marketing, and finance all impact the world around us. At Northland, we take that a step further with our business management program. Northland blends traditional business principles with a strong focus on sustainability and environmental stewardship.

This major equips students with the skills to navigate the complexities of managing organizations while integrating principles of environmental sustainability. Core business courses cover finance, marketing, operations, and strategic management, but with a unique twist. Students learn to apply these concepts within the context of environmental and social challenges and opportunities.

Business management is offered as both a major and a minor.

The curriculum emphasizes sustainable business practices and ethical decision making. Students also engage in projects and internships with organizations focused on sustainability, small business management, and nonprofit stewardship, providing real-world experience in implementing business strategies.

Graduates are prepared to lead businesses that prioritize environmental responsibility, aiming to create value not only for shareholders but also for society and the planet. They can pursue careers in corporate roles, environmental consulting, entrepreneurship, and more, blending business acumen with a commitment to positive impact.
