College of Business and Economics maintains prestigious AACSB accreditation

May 5, 2017- The University of  Wisconsin-River Falls has been reconfirmed in its accreditation by the  Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business International (AACSB).   The decision was made after a rigorous review process and a multi-day  review by an independent three-member review panel.  The panel chose to  extend special praise for excellent degree programs, a highly level of  innovation and extensive collaboration with business and the community.

“This decision validates our hard  work towards being a premier asset for our whole region,” said Michael  Fronmueller, dean of the College of Business and Economics.

Founded in 1916, AACSB is the  premier accrediting body for business schools that offer bachelors, masters,  and doctorate degrees in business and accounting. Accreditation by AACSB  is the only assurance available that all business programs are of the highest  quality, and are taught by highly qualified instructors. AACSB Accreditation  has been earned by less than five percent of the world's business schools.  Newsweek recommends that “When you look for the best in Business Education,  look for AACSB.”
