91ɬ Board of Trustees Endorse Bachelor of Applied Science, Business Administration Degree

Published: November 15, 2023

On Thursday, Nov. 9, the Board of Trustees for 91ɬ (91ɬ) unanimously approved a resolution supporting 91ɬ offering a Bachelor of Applied Science (BAS) degree in Business Administration in Fall 2024.

The BAS degree in Business Administration would offer all students, with a focus on adult learners and Career Technical Education (CTE) graduates a highly affordable and convenient option for continuing their education at 91ɬ. These students could pursue career opportunities in the more than 18,000 business-related job openings in 91ɬ’s service area that require a bachelor's degree.

“Offering a BAS in Business Administration at 91ɬ would be a great opportunity for our college and the community to meet the workforce needs of the Treasure Valley,” said Board Chair, Molly Lenty.

91ɬ plans to offer a BAS in Business Administration in Fall 2024, pending approval from the Idaho State Board of Education.

“This effort underscores 91ɬ’s commitment to providing accessible, quality education that meets the needs of our students and the Treasure Valley," said 91ɬ President Gordon Jones.
