North Central University is pleased to announce the addition of Accounting and Finance<\/a>, Computer Information Systems<\/a>, Computer Science<\/a>, Entrepreneurship<\/a>, Marketing<\/a>, Church Leadership<\/a>, Music Production – Live<\/a>, and Music Production – Studio<\/a>\u00a0to the more than 120 academic programs offered by the university\u2019s College of Arts and Sciences, College of Fine Arts<\/a>, College of Ministry, College of Missions, and Institute of Biblical and Theological Studies.<\/p>\n

NCU graduates in Accounting and Finance will enjoy a significant head start toward CPA certification. Entrepreneurship students graduate with fully capitalized business start-ups. And students in all five programs are afforded abundant opportunity to network and serve internships with potential employers.<\/p>\n

Prospective employers cite three reasons why NCU business grads are in such high demand:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The thorough knowledge they demonstrate of their chosen fields,<\/li>\n
  2. Their principled ethics and intact virtues of honesty and integrity,<\/li>\n
  3. The solid skills with which they enter today\u2019s work world.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \u201cNews outlets commonly suggest that college students graduate with limited job opportunities and a mountain of debt,\u201d observes Bill Tibbetts, director of NCU\u2019s School of Business. \u201cOne problem is that students and schools wait until the student\u2019s senior year to connect outside of the classroom in their fields of interest. At North Central, we start students on-ramping toward their careers from day one. I believe that\u2019s a major reason why we saw 100% job placement for our 2014 business administration graduates.\u201d<\/p>\n

    Students find North Central attractive in part because they can customize their degree programs to further their personal ministry and career goals. Contributing to such flexibility and individual attention:<\/p>\n
