Business & Technology
Develop the superior business and technology skills you need to succeed in today’s global economy. At AHA, you are invited to pursue principles of advertising, digital design, finance, accounting, banking, investment, and personal finance. As a freshman, you’ll gain an understanding of Microsoft Office applications by working on real-time projects in the Computer Applications course (required). Ultimately, you will build up to college-level accounting and computer programing. Electives enhance tech and research skills and emphasize decision-making, collaboration, and time management strategies.
