Program offered is a Bachelor.

Strategic Planning incorporates all aspects of the organization: its mission and culture, its leadership and human capital, the competitive environment, the size and complexity of the organization, its assets and resources, and its needs. Strategic planners must have a vision of their company's future, create specific action plans for achieving goals, assess and minimize risk, use resources efficiently, execute on a plan, manage the project, measure results and refine strategies-all the while protecting current income streams.
