Message from Chairperson Dr. Beryl C. McEwen

It is my pleasure to welcome you to the Web site of the Department of Business Education, one of four departments in the School of Business and Economics at North Carolina A&T State University. I hope the information provided here will help to answer your questions. If you decide to join one of our programs, a warm welcome awaits you.

The Department offers two areas of study: Business Teacher Education and Information Technology. The Business Teacher Education Program offers five concentrations: Computer Technology, Economics, Marketing. Each of these prepares you to teach business education at the secondary level (Grades 6-12).

The Information Technology program prepares you for end-user technology positions in business and industry. The Business Teacher Education program is available online as well as in the traditional classroom. The Information Technology program is not yet available online. The Department is also delighted to announce its new MAT Program (Master of Arts in Teaching) and welcomes candidates who hold degrees in a business discipline and wish to prepare to enter the teaching profession as business educators.

We offer you a highly qualified faculty, with eight out of nine holding doctoral degrees and over 60 years of teaching experience among us. Our campus facilities are excellent and our classrooms have the most current high-tech equipment that our faculty members use to support teaching and learning. We have an excellent record of success with the Praxis II exam—over 98% passing in the last 10 years. Look for our faculty in the professional literature. You will find that we are on the cutting-edge of our profession.

Thank you for taking the time to visit our Web site. We offer outstanding opportunities for undergraduate and graduate education and hope that you will consider joining us.

Sincerely,

Beryl C. McEwen, PhD
