Dear COB Faculty, Staff, Students, and Alumni:

May 08, 2019

The AACSB is an association of educational institutions, businesses, and other organizations devoted to the advancement of higher education in management education. It is also the premier accrediting agency of collegiate business schools and accounting programs worldwide. AACSB accreditation has been earned by less than five percent of the world’s business schools.

To earn accreditation, a school must demonstrate a high-quality teaching environment, a commitment to continuous improvement, and curricula responsive to the needs of the business. Accredited schools must go through a peer-review process every five years in order to maintain their accreditation.

Furthermore, it is with great pleasure to announce that the Peer Review Team recommendation to extend accreditation for the degree programs in business offered by California State University, Long Beach is concurred with by the Continuous Improvement Review Committee (CIRC) and ratified by the Board of Directors. California State University, Long Beach has achieved accreditation for five additional years.

The Office of Accreditation would like to thank those who have been involved in this journey—it was a team effort! This is the time to be a proud member of the COB.

Congratulations to all faculty, staff, students, and all supporters of the school. Thank you for helping make us one of 850 business schools worldwide that have this prestigious AACSB accreditation.

Best Regards,

Dean Michael Solt
