Tarleton State was one of the first universities to achieve this accreditation more than 30 years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The College of Business began the AACSB accreditation process in 2013 and completed it last year. The change better aligns with programs offered at Texas A&amp;M University.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AACSB-accredited schools undergo a rigorous peer review to ensure they have the resources, credentials and commitment to provide a first-rate, future-focused business education. During the multiyear process, schools develop and implement a plan that meets accreditation requirements.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fewer than 6 percent of the world\u2019s schools offering business degrees hold AACSB accreditation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AACSB accreditation ensures continuous improvement and provides direction for schools to deliver on their mission, to innovate and to drive impact. It inspires new ways of thinking in business education and promotes excellence in all areas \u2014 teaching, research, curriculum development and student learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Serving more than 3,000 undergraduate and graduate students with 13 undergraduate programs and six graduate programs, the Tarleton State College of Business strives to make a lasting impact on the lives of students, the community and the broader discipline of business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>STEPHENVILLE, Texas \u2014 Tarleton State University\u2019s College of Business has decided to withdraw from the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP), to devote full attention to its newly &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":54,"featured_media":49676,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":"","wds_primary_category":338,"footnotes":""},"categories":[423],"tags":[447],"class_list":["post-49471","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-academics-research","tag-dr-sam-pack-college-of-business"],"acf":{"image":false},"author_meta":{"display_name":"priddle","author_link":"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/author\/priddle-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2\/"},"featured_img":"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/65\/2023\/10\/Spring-Flowers-Admin-Gates_7545-300x200.jpg","coauthors":[],"tax_additional":{"categories":{"linked":["<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/category\/academics-research\/\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">Academics &amp; Research<\/a>"],"unlinked":["<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">Academics &amp; Research<\/span>"]},"tags":{"linked":["<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/category\/academics-research\/\" class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">Dr. Sam Pack College of Business<\/a>"],"unlinked":["<span class=\"advgb-post-tax-term\">Dr. Sam Pack College of Business<\/span>"]}},"comment_count":0,"relative_dates":{"created":"Posted 3 years ago","modified":"Updated 3 years ago"},"absolute_dates":{"created":"Posted on August 29, 2023","modified":"Updated on August 29, 2023"},"absolute_dates_time":{"created":"Posted on August 29, 2023 11:00 am","modified":"Updated on August 29, 2023 11:00 am"},"featured_img_caption":"Tarleton State University entrance with flags and flowers.","series_order":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49471","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/54"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=49471"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/49471\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/49676"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=49471"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=49471"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tarleton.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=49471"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
