Curriculum

Western International University has established itself as one of the best undergraduate business schools. WIU has established itself as one of the best undergraduate business schools because of its wide variety of business degree programs. WIU offers undergraduate programs in Accounting, Behavioral Science, Business, Information Technology, International Business, and Management with minors in Finance, Marketing, and e-Commerce.

In addition to distinguishing itself as one of the best undergraduate business schools, WIU also offers MBAs in Finance, Information Technology, Management, and International Business, as well as Master of Science degrees in Information Systems Engineering and Information Technology.

The Master of Public Administration and the Bachelor of Science in Administration of Justice degrees are open to city, state, local and federal government employees; a minimum enrollment is required.

At WIU, housing one of the best graduate and best undergraduate business schools, the curriculum is designed to be as flexible as possible. However, content is often sequential in nature, requiring that some information be learned before others can be learned. To facilitate student success, courses are listed in the catalog in a sequence that best supports learning. For example, in the bachelors programs the general education courses provide students with a breadth of knowledge that gives them an overall understanding of global/human issues and the basic skills to support the learning process.

The Common Body of Knowledge courses build upon the general education foundation, and provide support for the degree core courses, and then the major courses. It is strongly recommended that courses be taken as listed to achieve the greatest degree of understanding and success throughout the degree program. And, because courses are scheduled in rotations, taking them in order will prevent students from missing courses that may not be offered again in the near future.

As with the bachelor degrees, the master degrees also have a "best case" sequence. Each degree has a set of undergraduate prerequisite courses that provide foundational material, followed by the core courses that build on the prerequisites and lay the foundation for the major courses. The undergraduate prerequisites may be transferred in or taken at WIU.
