For more than 75 years, the Marshall School of Business has expanded the knowledge base of society and created new models for learning and teaching. The school’s location in Los Angeles, the heart of one of the world’s greatest business centers and an area world-famous for innovation and growth, provides students the opportunity to work closely with the business community and to bridge the gap between the classroom and the real business world.

The school has evolved a useful working relationship with the business and industrial leaders of Southern California and the Pacific Rim. Instruction by faculty is supplemented by visits from top executives from California and around the world. Because many class projects are based on real-world problems, students are required to visit industrial and business firms for observation and examination up close and personal. Many of the faculty take part in business activities, both as members and officers of professional organizations and as consultants to business.

Curricular programs and research commitments of the school are subject to constant review in an effort to keep abreast of the values, motivations, goals and needs of businesses and of students who are destined to become leaders of private enterprise in an age of rapid change.

The curricula are increasingly oriented to the integration of knowledge, current issues and practical problem solving. Courses are offered in innovative formats which include international study, integrated programs, simulated environments and field studies.

The school’s learning methods are supported in every way possible by faculty and student research, computing centers, management and behavioral laboratories, a learning services center and individual student career counseling.
