Business Administration (A.S.)

Start on the path to a four-year degree.

The two-year associate in science in business administration offers UD courses at a lower cost and in smaller classes in Wilmington, DE. You’ll complete many of the courses required by Lerner business majors, ultimately providing you with a pathway to a four-year business degree from Lerner.

Coursework will introduce you to fundamental business concepts as well as humanities and science subjects (university-required breadth courses), which will provide you a well-rounded education and prepare you for on-the-job success. The flexibility of the associate’s program allows you to study full or part time and take classes in person, online or both. After completing the associate in science, most students transition to UD’s Newark campus to pursue their four-year bachelor’s degree.
