Why Study Business at Judson?

Prepare to be a problem solver. The business programs at Judson University focus on preparing you to find solutions and work in dynamic, changing environments. Small class sizes means that you will personally know each of our faculty members.

There is a need for people who can plan, organize and innovate. Whether you’re interested in the operations of a small business, the corporate world or not for profit organizations, Judson’s business programs blend practical learning with hands-on opportunities.

Our location near Chicago provides incredible opportunities for you to apply what you learn in an internship during your senior year.

Judson Shark Tank

The Business Department helps to host our annual Judson Shark Tank event. Inspired by the reality business pitch series “Shark Tank” on ABC, this fosters creativity and entrepreneurship for students within all majors. Students prepare a pitch for their own business and deliver their presentation before a panel of judges. These judges are chosen for their leadership in local businesses.

Students work with business mentors to develop their business plans and learn valuable skills for perfecting their pitch, and compete to win more than $1,000 in prize money.

The Judson community was an integral piece of the puzzle for me as I matured from a high school kid at 18 into an adult at 22. It was somewhere I could be taught, but also somewhere I could begin teaching others and taking a stand for my beliefs because I believed them, not because I was being told to believe them.
