Our business and economics department has a strong track record of graduating top U.S. business leaders, such as a CEO of Ford Motor Company, the founder and head of Pennzoil, and the President of Morningstar. We have a strong, dedicated faculty who combine sound academic backgrounds, extensive hands-on business and economics, management and government experience, quantitative skills, law, and leadership to provide a quality education. We are fortunate to work with exceptional colleagues in an equally successful Accounting Department. Our distinctive liberal arts approach and quality teaching have been rewarded with high levels of student satisfaction and made the business and economics department the college’s largest program.
