Question and Answer
During a recent AACSB International Conference and Annual Meeting (ICAM) session, a
question was posed regarding the academic qualifications of faculty members in accredited business schools.
Question:
Can a publishing faculty member with a Master’s degree be classified as academically qualified according to Tables
10-1 and 10-2 within the AACSB accreditation standards?
Answer:

questions regarding Standard 10 relative to faculty qualifications. While the focus of a school is to normally inventory
their faculty resources, the standard’s focus is to review of overall quality and not just quantity. The objective of
