Achieving accreditation was a rigorous process that involved engagement with an AACSB-assigned mentor and a peer-reviewed evaluation. The ABS focused on developing and implementing a plan to align with AACSB鈥檚 accreditation standards. These standards require excellence in areas relating to strategic management and innovation; student, faculty, and staff as active participants; learning and teaching; research; and academic and professional engagement.
