"As chair of the AACSB Doctoral Faculty
Shortage Working Group, I have worked closely with deans across the United
States and throughout the world to establish approved programs that will
prepare high-quality faculty from non-business disciplines for AACSB academic
qualification and also increase the supply of doctoral faculty to our schools.
We offer an exceptional educational experience, with the quality and challenge
of a well-established, fully-accredited doctoral program that emphasizes
scholarship, research and teaching excellence. Our Post-Doctoral Bridge to
Business Program reflects our continuing commitment to bring our knowledge to
work for you."
