Dear School of Business Community,
It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the School of Business at Clark University.
The School of Business is a place with a mission to prepare leaders for a lifetime of success founded on the principles of social responsibility, sustainability, and ethical business practice. Being “Business Driven. Socially Focused.” means that our students graduate not only with the technical skills and real-world experience that employers demand—in areas like finance, accounting, analytics, marketing, business administration, and entrepreneurship – but also leave CUSB with an understanding of what it means to lead with integrity, compassion, and with a commitment to being a force for positive change.
With the rapid changes in technology, so have the areas covered within our curriculum expanded and transformed. The future of work in nearly every industry is infused with artificial intelligence, and skills leveraging AI technologies are in high demand. Our programs deliver knowledge and skill in both technical as well as applications aspects of AI to help prepare students for its deployment and use in the work place. Indeed, our students learn from faculty who are not just experts in their fields, they are also active researchers and dedicated mentors that delivers hands-on and experiential learning opportunities. Our small class size means their impact reaches far beyond the classroom, inspiring students to pursue national and international learning experiences and recognitions.
Ultimately, our goal is to see that our students are successful and launch into the careers they desire. Our graduates have worked at organizations such as Apple, PWC, and Morgan Stanley and founded companies that include the Blue Man Group. Our international students have built successful careers both here in the U.S. and in other countries around the globe.
All of us in CUSB are energized by the opportunities ahead. From exciting new interdisciplinary collaborations within Clark for our undergraduate programs, to deeper engagement with local and global partners for our graduate students, our momentum continues to build.
I invite you to be part of our wonderful community and hope to personally welcome you to our School.
Regards,
Dr. Jing Zhang
Interim Dean, Clark University School of Business
