Bachelor of Business Administration [B.B.A] [Intergrated Science and Business - Water emphasis] From University of Wisconsin

Students completing the Integrated Science/Business major have the option to add a Water Emphasis or water business minor. Water scarcity, pollution, climate change, and other problematic global water trends pose major challenges to businesses now and will continue to do so in the years ahead. It is increasingly clear that the era of cheap and easy access to water is ending, creating perhaps a greater threat to businesses than the loss of any other natural resource, including fossil fuel resources.

Over the past decade, the business sector has discovered water as both a startling vulnerability and an untapped opportunity. Business, through the production of goods and services, impacts water resources directly and through supply chains. Organizations are increasingly recognizing water as natural capital and scrutinizing water-related risks to business.

The water emphasis prepares you for a variety of careers, including those in:

• Environmental Science
• Compliance
• Water Research (in science, economics, public policy and other areas)
• Business Operations
• Water Technology
• Sustainability
