Tallahassee State College Expands Bachelor’s Offerings with Two Business-Focused Degrees

May 21, 2026

Tallahassee State College is expanding its bachelor's degree offerings with the launch of two new Bachelor of Applied Science (B.A.S.) programs designed to meet growing workforce needs in the Tallahassee region and across Florida.

Beginning this fall, students will be able to pursue a Bachelor of Applied Science in Auditing and Compliance Management or a Bachelor of Applied Science in Management Analytics, two programs developed in response to increasing employer demand for professionals with expertise in compliance, risk management, business analytics, and strategic decision-making. Applications are now being accepted for both programs.

The Bachelor of Applied Science in Auditing and Compliance Management prepares students for careers in auditing, regulatory compliance, and risk management, with a strong focus on the needs of government and public-sector organizations in Florida's capital city. Students will develop skills in auditing practices, internal controls, fraud examination, governmental accounting, and risk management while preparing for careers that support accountability, transparency, and regulatory oversight across public and private sectors.

The Bachelor of Applied Science in Management Analytics prepares students to help organizations make smarter, data-driven decisions through business analytics, strategic analysis, and operational improvement. The program equips students with skills in data analysis, visualization, business processes, and strategic management, preparing graduates for careers across industries, including government, healthcare, finance, and technology, where analytical and decision-making skills are increasingly in demand.

"As industries become more data-driven and compliance-focused, the need for highly skilled professionals continues to grow," said Dr. Calandra Stringer, Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs. "Organizations today need professionals who can interpret complex information, identify risks, improve processes, and help leaders make informed decisions. These programs were designed with those workforce realities in mind."

The new bachelor's programs continue TSC's commitment to expanding accessible, workforce-focused educational opportunities that align with regional and statewide economic needs.
