Students are encouraged to check that they have met the prerequisite requirements for each course in the Jack H. Brown College of Business and Public Administration in which they are planning to enroll. Prerequisite requirements listed for each course are strictly enforced.

Enrollment in 3000-, 4000- and 5000-level courses in the Jack H. Brown College of Business and Public Administration is restricted to students who have completed at least 60 semester units (i.e., have achieved junior standing). Course prerequisites are strictly enforced.

The M.A. in Education, TESOL Option is a program designed to meet the needs of English teachers in classrooms with English learners both in the United States and abroad. We offer specialization in K-12 education, adult ESL, program management, and college-level English teaching. Teaching English in California and around the world is a fast-growing profession.

The program features outstanding faculty with teaching and research interests in language and literacy development, innovative language-learning methods, and technology-enhanced instruction. A unified focus on language for communicative purposes draws together contemporary theories that focus on the language learner as a whole person. Courses in teaching methods and supervised fieldwork opportunities strengthen the knowledge of classroom techniques.

Nestled in the foothills of the San Bernardino Mountains, CSUSB is an attractive site for higher education. The 430-acre campus features 26 buildings surrounded by panoramic views of near-by mountains.

The Bachelor of Science in Chemistry program is certified by Committee on Professional Training of the American Chemical Society.  It is designed for the student who plans a career in chemistry or a related field upon graduation or plans to go on to graduate school in the chemical sciences.  It is also an option for students interested in medicine, pharmaceutical sciences, clinical laboratory science, forensics, environmental science, as well as industries such as petrochemicals, instrumentation, food, nutraceuticals, or cosmetics.  The program provides foundational course work in the sub-disciplinary areas of organic, inorganic, physical, analytical, and biochemistry with cognate course work in biology, mathematics and physics.  A concentration in biochemistry or chemistry is required.  

The chemistry option requires in-depth courses in instrumental analysis, an inorganic chemistry lab, materials or polymer chemistry, one upper-division chemistry elective, and completion of a senior project.  The biochemistry option requires additional biology and biochemistry course and laboratory work, and may be more appropriate for students interested in the biotech industry, medical, or pharmacy school.

The Master of Science in Entrepreneurship and Innovation (MSEI) program is designed to offer students with business, technical or other non-business degrees a comprehensive education that prepares them to launch entrepreneurial ventures or new business ventures in large organizations.

The program is structured as a 16-24 month, 30-unit program for both business and non-business majors alike and utilizes primarily face-to-face courses but will also integrate hybrid instruction where appropriate. Through coursework and experiential learning activities, students will be exposed to the key concepts of entrepreneurship including creativity and idealization, evaluation and screening of business concepts, business model formulation, startup models and the entrepreneurial process, team formation, marshaling resources, planning techniques, and launch strategies.

The Master of Science in Environmental Sciences is a multidisciplinary program. In addition to courses in chemistry and geology, there are opportunities for study in economics, geography, health sciences, management, and public administration. Students are admitted from numerous backgrounds, but generally with bachelor's degrees in some scientific fields such as chemistry, biology, or environmental science.  This program is designed to provide a broad background in sciences relevant to the environment and is designed so that it can potentially be completed in two years.

The culminating experience in the M.S. in Environmental Sciences is either an internship coupled with an extended project and its defense or a research thesis and defense of the thesis.

The Master of Social Work program emphasizes the National Association of Social Workers’ core social work value, professionalism, and excellence in critical analysis. Students will experience an education that provides training to enter the social work profession through academic and field practicum curricula areas: research, human behavior, social policy, and practice with individuals, groups, organizations, and communities. The competitive program has been fully accredited since 1989. Three models are offered: Model (1) offers two academic years of courses.

The Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies, provides the foundation for students interested in becoming multiple-subject credentialed K-8 educators. This degree offers three concentrations: General, Integrated, and Spanish Studies. The Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies Integrated Concentration provides students the opportunity to complete a Bachelor's degree and a California Commission on Teacher Credentialing (CTC) accredited multiple-subject teaching credential as a part of a seamless, singular degree option. The General and Spanish Studies Concentrations are considered pre-credential degrees and allow students the flexibility to earn a stand-alone Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies that is not directly coupled with a CTC multiple-subject credential while allowing students the choice of a concentrated area of study. With these pre-credential concentrations, students earn a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Studies and can apply for a CTC multiple-subject credential program at a later date if desired.
