Dear Friends,
Welcome to the Clark University School of Business!
I, along with students, alumni, faculty, and staff, are thrilled by the renewed energy and sharpened focus of our school this year. All of us remain committed to a “Business Driven, Socially Focused” business education.
Indeed, CUSB is about much more than “management.” Our faculty have long provided a rigorous and well-rounded business education in disciplines including finance, accounting, analytics, marketing, business administration, and entrepreneurship. But what is arguably most important is our continued focus on creating business leaders who are a force for positive change in their companies, in our communities, and in the world we share.
All of us recognize the formidable challenges that exist in the world around us, and we rise to meet these challenges with new commitments to collaborate across campus, and establish interdisciplinary studies informed by the Liberal Arts. Recent initiatives include cross-listed courses with the Becker School of Design and Technology, and development of socially focused interdisciplinary programs for the Clark School for Climate and Society.
At the same time, we are broadening our connections with local, state, national, and international partners to support our students’ desire to have direct impact on social issues, including climate change, poverty, and equitable access to AI and other new technologies.
I have also re-established a Dean’s Advisory Council, a platform for alumni who care deeply about the advancement of the School of Business and enjoy a greater role in its advancement.
I salute our alumni across the globe who are already advancing the important work that we do, and your shared dedication to Clark’s core values, and I look forward to welcoming new students this Fall to the Clark University School of Business.
Onward!
David A. Jordan, Dean
