Accreditation. Growth. Excellence.

At the College of Business at ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½, your academic experience is designed to be both transformational and career-focused. We’re committed to helping you make the most of your time here—through outstanding instruction, personal support, and access to opportunities that launch rewarding careers.

Top-Tier Accreditation. Global Recognition.

All undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral programs in the College of Business are accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB International)—a distinction earned by fewer than 6% of business schools worldwide. Our School of Accountancy also holds separate AACSB accreditation, placing it among an elite group of programs internationally.

AACSB accreditation is the highest standard of excellence in business education and confirms our commitment to rigorous academics, real-world relevance, and continuous improvement.

Engaged Faculty. Personal Support.

Though we’re part of a Tier I public research university, we maintain a tight-knit, student-first atmosphere. We’re one of only two business schools in ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ offering AACSB-accredited programs at the undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral levels.

Our undergraduate student-to-professor ratio is 23:1, allowing for high interaction from the nation’s highest caliber professors. Academic relationships and education extends outside of the classroom—our faculty want to get to know you. You will see them at the College’s crawfish boils and cookouts, lecture series, cheering on the Bulldogs at sporting events, and of course, during their office hours. Here, you are more than just a student, you are family.

ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ Tech is consistently ranked as the best value college in ÌÇÐÄ´«Ã½ by Kiplinger and delivers the highest 20-year net ROI in the state—$440,000. That means your investment in a business degree here pays off.

Our business undergraduate and graduate programs are nationally recognized for both value and academic quality by trusted sources like U.S. News & World Report and Fortune.
