From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A business (also called a company, enterprise or firm) is a legally recognized organization designed to provide goods and/or services to consumers. Businesses are predominant in capitalist economies, most being privately owned and formed to earn profit that will increase the wealth of its owners and grow the business itself. The owners and operators of a business have as one of their main objectives the receipt or generation of a financial return in exchange for work and acceptance of risk. Notable exceptions include cooperative enterprises and state-owned enterprises. Businesses can also be formed not-for-profit or be state-owned. The etymology of "business" relates to the state of being busy either as an individual or society as a whole, doing commercially viable and profitable work. The term "business" has at least three usages, depending on the scope — the singular usage (above) to mean a particular company or corporation, the generalized usage to refer to a particular market sector, such as "the music business" and compound forms such as agribusiness, or the broadest meaning to include all activity by the community of suppliers of goods and services. However, the exact definition of business, like much else in the philosophy of business, is a matter of debate. From Wikipedia under the

You definitely have to put a lot of thought and time in constructing one. Put yourself in the lender's situation - if some random guy came up to you with no clear plan, why on earth would you give him $20k? If you are sure that you'll make a or are already making a profit, spell it out for them. Show them how you've flourished and how you expect to grow in the future with this money. Obviously you don't have to know every specific detail going into the distant future, since no one can predict what will happen with your business, but at least develop likely scenarios so you'll be prepared for anything.

Business programs will have you take classes in all functional areas, including marketing, finance, HR, IT, etc. Additionally most school's will have you take some sort of strategic management course as your capstone class. Those are just the general business requirements. You will then take in-depth coursework within your concentration area. For example, if you are an accounting emphasis business major, you will take anywhere from 6-8 upper division accounting classes. Finally, there may be elective business coursework you are also required to do such as in international business, entrepreneurship, or such. You're also strongly advised to do an internship (credit awarded) in your area so you can build real experience.
