Business, Finance and Information Technology Education (BFIT)

The Business, Finance and Information Technology Education (BFIT) concentration focuses on the preparation of business education teachers in grades 6-12. BFIT instructors teach a variety of courses in these grades from business law and computer applications to personal finance and computer networking. Students in the BFIT concentration will learn how to teach young people about business skills and techniques, an understanding of basic economics, and business attitudes essential to participate in the multinational marketplace as productive workers and consumers. Students in the BFIT concentration will also develop the skills necessary to teach students about financial management and make intelligent consumer and business-related choices.

Because of the extensive training in business subjects, individuals that choose not to teach after graduation have found lucrative and successful careers in all types of business fields.
