Bentley Major to Career Guide by Bentley University Pulsifer Career Development Center

BENTLEY MAJOR TO CAREER GUIDE 2021-2022

Introduction This guide is to assist you in making the connection between a Bentley major and a specific occupation. It is important to remember that your future occupation may relate more to your talents, work values, skills, and personal interests than any specific academic major. The samples and options for each of the Bentley majors are designed to get you thinking about occupations, work settings, and employers related to a particular major. REMEMBER—these options are certainly not all of the occupations you might consider. After you look at the guides, we encourage you to link to the academic curriculum associated with each major. This will give you an idea of the classes you will need to take for a particular program. We also encourage you to do additional research through O*Net, or by connecting with alumni through the Mentor Marketplace. All links for further research are listed on each guide under the “Connecting Majors, Talents, Skills, and Occupations” section.

*CPR = Co- or Prerequisite

AC 311 is a prerequisite or corequisite for many courses in the major and is also one of the more difficult courses to master. Students who are considering an Accountancy major should take this course as soon as possible to help clarify their interest and ability in AC. Accounting elective choices are: AC 331 Government and Not for Profit Reporting, AC 332 Fraud Examination, AC 381 International Accounting, AC 412 Advanced Cost Management, AC 421 Internship, AC 440 Advanced Design and Control of Data and Systems, AC 450 Advanced Federal Taxation, AC 470 Financial Statement Auditing or AC 472 Internal Auditing, or AC 475 Information Technology Auditing Principles and Practice. Students should avoid taking GB 320 and AC 412 in the same semester, whenever possible, given that both courses often require a significant time commitment. In addition, it is not recommended that students take GB 320 concurrently with AC 340 due to the project nature of both courses. Work with a CPA track advisor if you wish to meet the educational requirements of CPA licensure. Please email accountancydept@bentley.edu to be put in touch with an advisor. 1. Placement in this course is determined by the English and Media Studies department. 2. Requirement may be fulfilled with any LIT/CIN/EMS or MLCH 402, MLFR 304, MLIT 304, MLSP 301, 404, or 405. 3.

BUSINESS ECONOMICS No two economic systems are the same. And yet, in today’s global business environment, an understanding of how economies operate, and their relationships with one another, is critical. The Business Economics major teaches you how to make sound business decisions, such as price and output determination, strategic planning and forecasting. As a Business Economics major, you will have the flexibility to combine economics with a non-finance discipline. You may pursue a concentration in a number of business areas including: n Economic analysis n Entrepreneurship n Information technology n International business n Law n Management n Marketing If you are interested in a traditional economics education, the Economic Analysis concentration may be a good fit for you. This concentration requires that you take all of your major courses within the Economics Department.

Every area of business, science, entertainment and, increasingly, the humanities is becoming more data-driven.

The Data Analytics major prepares graduates to add value to any organization through quantitative decision-making from both structured and unstructured data. Curriculum was heavily influenced by market research on the skills and experience you’ll need to get ahead in this emerging field. Coursework combines mathematical modeling and business-world pragmatism, including a mix of statistics, computer science, and mathematics.

ECONOMICS FINANCE (EF) Economics/Finance students develop solid skills in financial statement analysis along with a strong foundation in microeconomic and macroeconomic theory. They receive broad exposure to the financial system, including the expanding international financial markets. Finance and Economics electives comprise a large portion of the major and therefore, students should work closely with departmental advisors to determine the direction of their program.

FINANCE (FI) Finance is the study of the purchase and sale of assets by individuals and institutions and the methods used to fund these transactions. The markets in which these transactions occur and the pricing of the financial instruments are integral to the study of finance. Through the Finance degree, you will develop a broad array of analytical skills, attain a thorough understanding of the finance function in different kinds of organizations, and gain a global perspective of the institutions and markets in which finance operates. Required courses focus on the financial environment of business, the decision-making process of corporations, the key principles underlying the investment process, and the expanding international context of financial analysis, portfolio construction, and trading. You will focus on the applications of information processing technology in financial analysis and risk management. Prerequisite/Corequisite Structure COURSES
