The College of Business Administration is strongly committed to a shared-governance environment of excellence in instruction and research that addresses the needs of our stakeholders. We believe this environment can best be achieved through collegiality, academic freedom, faculty-student interaction, and respect for diversity. Inherent in our philosophy and crucial to the success of our students are high classroom expectations with a faculty actively engaged in research and professional development. We believe that faculty should be empowered to experiment with innovative teaching and instructional design methods. Further, we believe our college should be a place where faculty, staff, students and the community create and share ideas so as to enhance the learning experience. The college embraces internal and external assessment and critique of our programs as a means to achieve continuous quality improvement.
