Art Lekacos We would like to introduce you to a program initiated four years ago by Stony Brook that combines a four year undergraduate degree and a two year MBA degree into a five year combined degree program, the Combined Degree MBA. The program is designed for high achieving undergraduate students who are not busine...ss majors. To apply, students must have at least junior standing, a minimum GPA of 3.0, and a major outside of business. For information about applying to the program, please contact Graduate Program Coordinator in the College of Business Office of Student Services in Room 102 of Harriman Hall.
We will be holding an information session on the Combined Degree MBA on Wednesday, April 15 at 12:50 in Harriman Hall Room 304.
Students admitted to the Combined Degree program will participate in our innovative 12 MBA credit eight week program in the summer before their senior year, where you will learn the essentials of business in a dynamic hands-on program.

The popular upper division elective H DEC course, BIO358 (Biology of Human/Social and Sexual Behavior aka “The Biology of Being Human”) taught by evolutionary biologists Paul M. Bingham and Joanne Souza will be available online during the extended summer session. In the process of exploring a new theory of how humans ...came to be unique among all animals, we will unite the natural and social sciences with unprecedented power and scope. While learning the particulars of this new theory, students “do science” as it is meant to be done – through critical thought, inductive reasoning and peer debate. We invite students from the social sciences, natural sciences and humanities and from all universities to join us for an exciting intellectual adventure. For more information including certain in-person requirements for exams only at either the West or Manhattan campus, see the course website at http://www.sinc.sunysb.edu/Class/bio358/

Feel like learning about something intriguing and entirely different? Want to put your love of horror movies to good use? Take a look at HIS 357: The History of Horror! :
Vampires, werewolves, ghosts and psycho-killers—these are the monsters that haunt our nightmares. The continued portrayals of them on film are refl...ections of the most deep-seated fears and historical and cultural anxieties. This class will survey such horrors as the classic monsters of Universal and Hammer Studios, the visceral violence of giallos and slashers, and the supernatural and psychological extremes of Asian cinema. We will analyze each film as a cultural artifact; the focus will be on the development and expression of fear, discussing such overarching themes as religion, science/ technology, and xenophobia, as well as examining the roots of such horror in folklore and literature.
