The mission of the department is to advance the knowledge and practice of management, organizational design, and organizational strategy--with a special focus on producing ethical leaders for the global, highly technical environment and for the greater good of society.

The department teaches undergraduate courses that provide students with a theoretical and practical understanding of organizations, of individual and group behavior within organizations, and of strategic ways of positioning organizations in their industrial, social, legal, and international environments.

The department is committed to broadening our understanding of these topics and of sharing this knowledge with our students, by researching the social and international environments of business, the strategic management of organizations, the organizational dynamics of information technologies, and managerial decision-making particularly within ethical frameworks.
