This deletion will make room for courses in other critical components of management curriculum.
Modification of MGMT 101
Justification: Course content redesign to include complex-system thinking concepts and accordingly changed the course title to Introduction to Applied Management.
Deletion of MGMT 312 Systems Simulation…4 credit hours
