Student performance

The School of Business program emphasizes five learning objectives:

  • Mastery of content knowledge and skills
  • Effective communication skills
  • Innovation and critical thinking skills
  • Leadership
  • Ethics and social responsibility

We assesses our progress in each of these objectives during each semester and with a summative exam in the senior year.

Average student scores on a summative exam designed and administered by a third party assessment service during the senior year are shown in the table below.
