E. A. Levitt Business Department

The Business Department consists of the School of Business (including the departments of accounting, business administration, economics, finance, and management).  In 1979, York College’s business school was named the E. A. Levitt School of Business in honor of a longtime friend of York College.  Elijah A. Levitt, LL.D., was a prominent local businessman who generously contributed to the growth of the community of York and the College. 

The School of Business offers Bachelor of Business Administration degrees with major concentrations in the areas of accounting, business administration, and business management.  The Business Department cooperates with the Education Department to offer a B.A. with a Business Education 7-12 basic business subject endorsement, and with the Fine/Performing Arts Department to offer a B.A. with a major in Business Communication.  In addition, courses are offered in Microsoft Office, and other areas of interest to students who are not majoring within the department.

The programs offered by the E. A. Levitt School of Business help to prepare students for careers which include work in the following fields:  accounting, auditing, management, entrepreneurship, marketing, finance, banking, insurance, sales management, advertising, retail, economics, government, education, health and human services, office management, and advanced studies in graduate and professional (including law) schools.
