The Business & Technology major combines a broad business education with technology and analytics, allowing students to customize their degree around their business interests and a technology area.

Business & Technology students will study the fundamentals of accounting, finance, economics, marketing, management, strategy, entrepreneurship, information systems and analytics, while completing both a business concentration and a technology concentration.

Business concentration options include areas such as accounting, finance, quantitative finance, marketing and economics, while technology concentrations allow you to explore areas such as data analytics, information systems, computer science, biotechnology and green technology.

Business & Technology students can participate in organizations including the Stevens Consulting Club, Finance, Investment Banking and Advisory Society (FIBA), Stevens Women in Business, Fashion Association of Marketing and Entrepreneurship (FAME) and Phi Beta Lambda, along with entrepreneurship and technology-focused organizations across the university.

Business and Technology students have strong opportunities to gain professional experience throughout their undergraduate years. 94% of business students complete at least one paid internship before graduation, and 53% complete two paid experiences, with opportunities in accounting, marketing, management, financial analysis, consulting and related business fields.

Students can also participate in faculty-led research, working directly with professors on projects involving accounting, financial data, analytics and artificial intelligence.

Together, these experiences allow students to apply classroom knowledge to real-world business challenges while developing the technical, analytical, and professional skills employers value.

Stevens has developed a three-year bachelor’s degree plan for eligible students who enter with 24 or more college credits earned through AP and dual-enrollment coursework in high school.

With careful academic planning and by applying eligible incoming credits toward degree requirements, students may be able to complete their undergraduate degree in three years and use their fourth year to pursue a master’s degree, creating the opportunity to earn both a bachelor’s and master’s degree in just four years.

Business & Technology graduates have been recruited by major organizations including JP Morgan, Goldman Sachs, Johnson & Johnson, KPMG and Citi, while other graduates have launched entrepreneurial ventures of their own.

92% of Business and Technology graduates achieved their desired outcome within six months of graduation, with an average starting salary of $84,100 for the Class of 2025.

Graduates leave Stevens with a flexible combination of business, analytical and technology skills that prepares them for careers in consulting, financial services, technology, analytics, operations, product management and entrepreneurship.
