Business studies refer to a discipline area that consists of classes such as finance, marketing, leadership, and money management. Classes may be taken as part of a particular degree or to prepare students for a business career.

A master’s degree is an advanced academic program that can take about two years of full-time schooling to earn, provided students have already received a bachelor’s degree. Earning an MA may help students achieve their educational goals and set them on the path toward accomplishing their professional goals as well.
