    Associate of Applied Science Programs in Business Management

    An associate degree is shorter than a bachelor degree, but also can show employers you have studied a subject beyond high school. When you study full-time, you can usually complete an associate's in two years. Part-time programs are available and usually take longer.

    More specifically, what is an Associate of Applied Science in Business Management? This subject deals with the administration of companies, corporations and other business organizations. The general topic of management can be further focused on areas like health care, accounting or marketing. Typical subjects covered include marketing theory, microeconomics and information systems. Some programs also have internships as part of their requirement for finishing the degree.

    While undertaking this program, there are some skills you may gain. These include public speaking, time management and conflict resolution. Each of these plays an important role in managing groups of people to complete tasks in a timely manner.

    There are multiple factors to consider when budgeting for an associate's degree. Consider whether you will live on campus or take classes online and what books you will need. These costs depend on where your school is located, among other factors.

    Where your degree takes your career depends on how you choose to focus. With a program specializing in finance, you may find work as an accountant or marketing manager. For programs specializing in management, entry-level team leader positions are a possibility. Personnel managers and directors are needed in schools, hospitals and government agencies. Any company that has a hierarchy of employees needs managers, so be sure to look outside your comfort zone if you find openings lacking.

    Business degrees are very common and can be found in schools all over the world. If you take online courses, you may be able to apply to a school far from where you live.
