School of Business

Albert H. Smith, Jr., Dean

Accounting, Business Administration, Economics

The Malone College School of Business provides its students with an education that integrates course-specific skills and knowledge with program-wide Christian values, including stewardship and integrity. This is accomplished by a faculty with solid academic credentials who combine practical experience and applied theoretical tools and systems. Independent analytical thought and evaluation are encouraged in the classroom in an atmosphere of mutual respect.

The School of Business offers two undergraduate majors: Accounting and Business Administration. Within the Business Administration major, a student may pursue a concentration in Economics, Finance, Management, or Marketing. In addition, the School of Business offers minors in the areas of Accounting, Business Administration, Economics, Finance, Management, and Marketing. Students with majors outside the School of Business can add a business component to their education by obtaining one of the minors. Students within the School of Business may consider a minor to increase their knowledge in a specific area.

The undergraduate business curriculum is augmented by the general education curriculum required of all Malone undergraduates. We believe that this liberal arts foundation will better equip Malone Business and Accounting graduates with the knowledge and skills needed for positions of management and leadership in a diverse workplace environment.

The faculty of the School of Business is key to the quality of the education. The faculty has solid academic and professional credentials and includes people with PhDs in the areas of Information Systems, Organizational Development, Economics, Operations Research, and Marketing, as well as a J.D. degree and professional certifications such as CPA and CMA. In addition, many of the faculty have considerable professional work experience and are able to combine real-world experience with theory in the classroom.

A Christian worldview informs all courses and programs in the School of Business. We strive to prepare students who can integrate Christian values such as integrity, stewardship, and justice with their business knowledge and thereby serve God in the business world.
