SoBA Mission Statement
The mission of the School of Business
Administration is to provide high-quality academic programs,
particularly at the graduate level, primarily for non-traditional
students living in the Gulf Coast region of Texas. Our mission
is supported by hiring and retaining qualified faculty who ensure
that our graduates possess the knowledge and skills necessary
for successful careers in business and society.
We dedicate ourselves to continuous improvement
in the following areas:
Curriculum:
Providing adaptive programs, particularly at the graduate
level, that prepare our graduates for successful business careers
in a rapidly changing, global and technological environment.
Outreach: Offering
educational opportunities to underserved constituencies through
a variety of delivery modes (e.g., off-campus sites and Internet)
and collaborative arrangements.
Intellectual Contributions:
Fostering intellectual contributions that emphasize the application
of knowledge to improve management practices; with a lesser but
equal emphasis placed on the discovery of new knowledge and the
enhancement of knowledge related to instructional development.
Service: Providing
a balanced array of services to the institution, profession and
community, within the constraints of our primary focus on teaching
and research.
