The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, AACSB, announced in Spring 2021 that the College of Business Administration’s accreditations in business and accounting programs have been extended for another five years through 2026. The announcement follows a rigorous peer review and virtual site visit from deans and accounting directors of fellow AACSB-accredited institutions who recommended the College of Business Administrations’ accreditation extension.
Michelle W. Trawick, the John Becker Dean of the College of Business Administration shared that “AACSB accreditation is a mark of high-quality business education. The standards we work to exceed are put in place to ensure our hard-working UNO business graduates, and their employers, have exceptional career opportunities.” AACSB Accreditation is the hallmark of excellence in business education and has been earned by less than five percent of the world’s business programs. Today, there are only 901 business schools in 58 countries and territories that maintain AACSB Accreditation. UNO’s College of Business Administration has maintained AACSB business accreditation since 1965 for its Bachelor of Science degree, and UNO’s Master of Business Administration (MBA) program has been included in this accreditation since 1980. UNO’s School of Accounting has maintained supplemental AACSB Accounting Accreditation for its undergraduate and Master of Accounting programs since 2013.
