School of Business Administration
The School of Business Administration at UM is Montana’s premier business education program. The School is home to the only MBA program in the state and houses one of only two university-based World Trade Centers.
Points of Pride
- Master of Business Administration and Accountancy students met with Berkshire Hathaway chairman Warren Buffett and Kansas City Federal Reserve Bank president Tom Hoenig in 2010, an example of experiential learning opportunities that augment curriculum at the business school.
- Eleven faculty fellowships, distinguished faculty fellowships, and professorships attract world-class faculty to the UM School of Business Administration.
- The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business conveyed unconditional extension of business and accounting accreditation to the School of Business Administration in spring 2010. AACSB business accreditation is extended to fewer than 5 percent and accounting accreditation to fewer than 1.5 percent of schools worldwide.
Impact of Giving
- During the 2010 academic year, private donations supported more than $200,000 in scholarships for students in the School.
- Private donations help support the career development program, which prepares students to compete for the best career opportunities. This program was noted as an area of distinction by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business accreditation team.
- The Dean’s Opportunity Fund provides experiential learning and research opportunities, supports student and faculty attendance at conferences, and provides scholarship funding.
