BANGOR, Maine (AP) — Husson University says it’s offering a new degree program in retail management beginning this fall.

The Bangor university says the school’s College of Business developed the new program with input from Wal-Mart.

The school says the new program includes courses that focus on supply chain management, financial reporting, sales and service, customer service and retention, merchandising and human resources.

Students who enroll will work toward a Bachelor of Science in Business degree with a concentration in retail management.
