Bachelor of Science in Biology (STEM)

at EDUCO - Duquesne University USA

Program emphasis on developing research skills and conducting research critical to preparing students for master's degrees in social work, public policy, administration of justice, and public administration and opportunities to participate in faculty research,including an on-going study of black women's maternal health in Pittsburgh neighborhoods and another study of how organisations that advocate for low-income tenants can work with landlords to secure affordable housing.

The discipline helps you understand what motivates people and how often-conflicting values affect behavior in the marketplace. From individuals to groups, from corporations to governments, people behave differently, and a well-trained student of economics accurately can analyze those differences and their effects.

The curriculum is steeped in data analytics. Economics majors take a number of upper-level courses in data analytics including two courses in Econometrics that require students to complete several rigorous research projects.

Our economics graduates are sought after by graduate schools because of their intensive quantitative training and research experience. Employers seek out the students because of the depth of their critical thinking and the strength of their core content knowledge.

CERE's Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science gives students a strong foundation in the natural sciences and mathematics, as well as provides them with a broad background in environmental issues. Courses emphasize the integration of science, policy, and theory as well as connections to the local community and private sector.

This web site will introduce you to our students, faculty, and alumni as well as to the philosophy and courses of study of our department. We are proud of our programs and the accomplishments of those involved with them. We hope that you find your visit informative and invite you to contact us for more information on how we can serve you and your career.

Business today is global, subjected to the forces of culture, economy, geography and politics. What happens in other countries affects American-based corporations, non-profit organizations and governmental agencies. As the world becomes smaller, a degree in international business will prepare you to meet the professional challenges of doing business at home and abroad.

An international business degree from our program prepares you for managerial careers in the global marketplace. Anticipating the demands of the discipline, our international business program teaches you not simply how to conduct business, but also how to conduct business with an understanding of world markets and political and cultural sensitivity.

While focusing on international business concepts in the classroom, you are exposed to real-world affairs through activities with international businesses and organizations located within the Pittsburgh area. In addition, you have the opportunity to fulfill your international business study-abroad requirement at Duquesne's campus in Rome, its international study center at the National University of Ireland, and through partnerships with numerous university partners around the world.

We offer four-year Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts degree programs that combine computing theory and programming skills, both of which are essential for solving problems in many types of careers.

Majoring in computer science will train you to create software applications in fields ranging from gaming to Web and mobile apps and give you a strong understanding of computational theory and best practices so that you can adapt throughout your career to ever-evolving computing capabilities.

Health Administration is an integration of healthcare, business management, and information systems.

As the healthcare delivery system is held to greater accountability, healthcare providers and entities must demonstrate quality outcomes, fiscal responsibility, and efficient and effective practices. To do this, health administration professionals collect and analyze data, incorporate innovative management techniques, and utilize new technologies to reengineer healthcare.

Health administration professionals are the inventors, innovators, and entrepreneurs for the constantly evolving healthcare delivery system.
