Strategic Plan
As one of the first universities in the western United States to offer a degree in commerce, the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business has an illustrious history of fostering research and scholarship, advancing the practice of business and management and providing lifelong learning. The college is home to five academic departments: Business Administration, Management Information Systems, Economics, School of Accountancy, and Management and Human Resources. The college provides a culture that supports innovation and continuous improvement at the department and program levels and fosters a spirit of partnership among students, faculty, and other constituents based on mutual respect, trust, and benefit.
Since business is the lifeblood for successful and prosperous communities, we envision our college as dedicated to bridging business theory with successful and ethical business practices. The Jon M. Huntsman School of Business expects our graduates to be entrepreneurial and prepared to compete in the global marketplace. Entrepreneurs create solutions that add value to society and the economy by reinterpreting the world rather than waiting for the world to define them.
The Jon M. Huntsman School of Business aspires to improve its national stature. Within the next ten years the college seeks to be nationally recognized. We will achieve this goal by enhancing our reputation as a leader in academia through the addition of an interdepartmental Ph.D. program, by stabilizing the cohort size and improving the academic qualification of our students, and by focusing on two or three program areas where we can achieve national preeminence.
