“The ranking of our MBA program is a strong reflection of the quality of our students and faculty,” said Kambiz Raffiee, associate dean and director of the MBA program. “The commitment of the MBA office and leadership of the College of Business under Dean Mosier reinforces the quality of our MBA program.”
“The College of Business has a high number of premier faculty members that are internationally respected within their fields of expertise,” Raffiee said. “Each faculty member is active professionally, sharing their real world experiences with students in the classroom. The faculty professional knowledge and academic rigor provide students of the MBA program with the tools they need to have successful careers.”
