The Gabelli School of Business will open a small undergraduate program next fall at Fordham’s Lincoln Center campus in Manhattan, according to a statement released Thursday. Students enrolled in the program will pursue a Bachelor of Science in Global Business degree, and will be able to choose one of four concentrations: digital media and technology; global finance and business economics; management, with a focus on health care; marketing, with a  focus on consumer insight.

“This is a huge development for the Gabelli School as it continues to raise its profile nationwide and internationally,” the statement said. “Establishing an undergraduate school in midtown will help to increase Fordham’s overall visibility, producing benefits for students on all campuses.”

Students studying in the program will be required to take more classes that focus on global business, as well as a number of liberal arts classes.

Donna Rapaccioli, dean of the Gabelli School of Business, will speak about the new program during a town hall meeting on September 23 at 5 p.m. in the McGinley Ballroom at Rose Hill.
