I am pleased to welcome you to the Eberly College of Business, where we take pride in a long tradition of preparing students for today’s global and cross-cultural workplace. The Eberly College is accredited by AACSB-International, the premier accrediting body for collegiate business schools worldwide. Less than 10 percent of business schools worldwide and only about 30 percent of business schools in the US are accredited by AACSB.
We offer bachelor’s, MBA, and PhD programs in a wide array of business disciplines. Over 25,000 Eberly alumni have established careers as professionals and entrepreneurs in a range of industries. The alumni are spread across Western and Eastern parts of Pennsylvania, other parts of the US, as well as over 50 countries from Australia to Zambia. Eberly alumni not only provide a source of inspiration but also a vital professional network for current students to start and advance their careers in their chosen fields.
Eberly students are well-equipped with the knowledge and skills required to succeed in a competitive workplace. Our business students have in-depth expertise in their disciplines of accounting, economics, finance, hospitality management, human resources, information systems, international business, management, marketing, small business management, and supply chain management. In addition, Eberly students possess the communication skills and the technical savvy that employers demand. They are trained to think critically and make decisions in a fast-paced environment. Our students are sensitized to DEI, social responsibility, and ethical decision making.
Faculty at Eberly are accomplished and dedicated teachers, advisers, scholars, and practitioners. The educational infrastructure in the Eberly Building is state-of-the-art. Students engage in internships as well as leadership and networking opportunities through a variety of student organizations.
