BUS 350 - Organizational Theory and Behavior

Credits: 3

Organization Theory and Behavior examines the theoretical frameworks developed to aid us in understanding how public sector organizations are structured and operate. The study of organization theory also examines how people interact and work together within an organizational setting. The purpose of this course is for students to explore and understand the classical and contemporary organizational theory and behavior literature. Organizations are the medium through which work in the public sector occurs. Thus, in order for students to become effective public administrator, they must gain a fundamental understanding of the nature of organizations and the various factors that influence human behavior within them. During the course of this semester we will examine classical and contemporary readings on organizational theory to introduce you to the various perspectives on the structure and behavior of the organizations that we inhabit daily.

Prerequisites: “C” or better in PSYC 1110  and BUS 305 .
