The University of North Texas at Dallas (UNT Dallas) has been accepted into the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), which sets the standard for business education around the world.
UNT Dallas joins a global network of more than 1,900 institutions aimed at creating the next generation of business leaders. Less than half of the higher education institutions in North Texas are AACSB members.
Membership demonstrates the university’s commitment to developing a world-class School of Business and eventually becoming an AACSB-accredited institution.
“AACSB membership will expand interest in our programs by employers and expand opportunities for our students. It places UNT Dallas with the highest quality business schools in the world,” said Dr. Jason Garrett, dean of the UNT Dallas School of Business. Officially, UNT Dallas is a Business Education Alliance member.
According to the AACSB, membership empowers schools to “stay connected with the latest insights, resources, and best practices in business education, helping them enhance their impact on students, communities, and economies.” These assets equip colleges and universities to better prepare their students for success in highly competitive business fields.
The UNT Dallas School of Business is the fastest-growing school at the university. It offers undergraduate degrees in accounting, business analytics, finance, general business, hospitality management, human resources, information technology, and supply chain and marketing management. It also offers an MBA with three different concentrations, a Master in Management and multiple certificates.
“The privilege of joining AACSB reflects the quality of programs at UNT Dallas and the university’s commitment to the continuous improvement of our curriculum,” Dr. Garrett said.
