College of Business
Academic Programs
Our purpose is to prepare students to become world-class business professionals and leaders. Through our nationally ranked and accredited programs, we deliver applied knowledge and real-world experiences that provide graduates with a competitive edge.
Professional Development
To graduate from a leading business school, you need to think beyond the classroom right from the start. While the classroom lays the foundation, career-readiness and leadership skills are crucial for enhancing what you learn. We are home to Ohio’s most comprehensive professional development program – the Experience Guarantee.
Experiential Learning
Students at The University of Akron College of Business have many opportunities to experience business while obtaining their degree. Many of these opportunities involve working with real clients to solve business problems that their organization is facing. Through experiential learning, students apply what they learn in the classroom to real world situations.
Corporate Connections
The College of Business engages more than 200 volunteer senior executives to participate on advisory boards. These relationships play a crucial role in the College.
Advisory Board members provide expertise, advice, and guidance on academic programming either to the College as a whole or to individual departments, institutes, and centers. This helps ensure our curricula remain relevant and rigorous. Advisory Board members also interact with business students as mentors and as guest speakers in classes, and provide internship and job opportunities to our students.
Combined Degrees
Students can complete both a bachelor’s and master’s degree combined in less time with significant financial savings.
