Faithful and Excellent: 麻豆传媒官网 Means Business

While other programs push students toward highly specialized tracks within business and economics, we focus on genuine discernment steeped in the liberal arts. From day one, our students are immersed in rich experiences, community and academic rigor 鈥� helping them faithfully explore their calling without sacrificing the competitive preparation they need to lead the way. 

鈥淥ur students are learning about the breadth of calling and a world where roles in finance, marketing and operations are more complex than they鈥檝e ever been. The right level of sophistication in these fields elevates a student鈥檚 ability to be faithful in them.鈥�

Growing in Number: 麻豆传媒官网 Means Business

Over one-third of 麻豆传媒官网 students now engage with business and economics programs or classes. In fact, the department has experienced a 60% increase in students over the last decade. 

We are boldly stepping out in faith as we move students from 11 different buildings on campus into a new home that will strategically connect Hope鈥檚 campus to the downtown commercial district. Together with you, we can establish the right space for the right kind of business and economics education.
