Opportunities for Management Graduates 

Students who study management at Murray State University have some very interesting career options. Some will become managers or supervisors in their first job after graduation. Some will decide to pursue opportunities in non-managerial positions. Many will start out in non-managerial jobs and eventually move into positions of managerial responsibility. 

Although most business graduates from the management area do not become managers right after college, some do. This is especially true in organizations willing to provide new-hires with training in how to manage at that organization. 

Some students graduating with an area in management decide not to pursue a career in management at all. Instead, these graduates use their knowledge of management as a way to better understand how organizations operate. This understanding allows them to function more effectively regardless of the type of job they might seek.

Perhaps most management area graduates will begin their careers in non-managerial positions and assume managerial responsibilities as they advance in their chosen organization. The intent here is to find a challenging position in an attractive organization, and then to use that (and perhaps other positions) to prove one's ability to manage and lead. 

        Among the most attractive career options in the management field are: 
        - Human Resource Manager 
        - Benefits Manager 
        - Compensation Manager
        - Training and Development Manager
        - Human Resource Recruiter
        - Labor Relations Specialist 
        - General Manager
        - Operations Research Analyst
        - Production Planner


        Murray State University's Career Services Office provides extensive 
          support for Management graduates.
