equipping for challenges North American
and Lithuanian faculty work together to give you an education that will
bridge the gap between the two different traditions of enterprise--those
of the East and of the West. The expansion of the European Union is coming
quickly. As the Eastern European community seeks integration, relationships
with foreign partners become increasingly important. LCC will equip you
with the skills needed to not only survive but also to be a step ahead
in this transition. You will gain a broad understanding of Western business
practices and learn to adapt these to the local business environment.
Our international community of professors and students provides you with
the perfect laboratory to prepare for the global economy.

is a Christian institution we seek to educate you not only as a successful
business person, but also as a responsible citizen. Our diverse curriculum

We will challenge you to consider how you relate to people, both professionally
and personally. We want to provide you with an ethical framework in
which to make decisions. You will develop the ability to think about
the world more broadly, a skill which is becoming increasingly important
in the business environment. But you will also be challenged to think

making it real for you LCC provides you
with great opportunities to experience the realities of the business
world. The Student Business Organization (SBO) and the Career Development
Center (CDC) work together to enable you to function successfully even
before you get your Bachelor's degree. The SBO offers you first hand
experience working on actual business projects, meeting with representatives
of Lithuanian and international companies and organizing professional
events and conferences. You will learn to lead diverse teams, as well
as become a skilled discussion facilitator and negotiator. With the
help of the CDC, you will learn to become everything employers are
looking for from writing a job-winning resume to discovering your real
talents and strengths.
Bonnie Straight, Business Department chair, shares her vision for business
students:
“ Our purpose is not to train specialists, but to develop skilled business professionals who know how to learn, who work well in teams, who work with integrity and imagination, and who have had practice in analyzing the current business environment and identifying areas of opportunity and threat.”
