Program Description Administrative Assistant Stella Callagee The vision of the Dixie State University business program is to be a business school that students seek out for a quality education, handson experiences, and close student-faculty relationships in an environment that promotes the highest standards of professionalism and integrity. One step toward this goal was the founding of the Institute for Business Integrity in 2006. The Institute is chaired by Dr. Robert Huddleston, accounting faculty member and past president of DSU. Under his able leadership, ethics has been integrated throughout the curriculum and a series of ethics-related seminars is provided to students and the community. These seminars feature prominent business leaders from around the region. Core to our success is our faculty. Unlike large research institutions, the mission of the Udvar-Hazy School of Business focuses on teaching. The result is that DSU students have greater access to full-time faculty than at most major universities. Almost all of our full-time business school faculty hold earned doctorate degrees, most have extensive business experience, and all maintain their professional competencies through ongoing research and/or pedagogical innovation. Opportunities for practical learning are provided by a faculty rich in global business experience. DSU business students have been involved in providing small business training to students at a school for the deaf and blind in Russia, delivering computer equipment to students in Ecuador, consulting with the local dinosaur museum, providing volunteer tax assistance to students and local residents, and participating in any number of marketing and operations management projects for local businesses. Working with the Dixie Business Alliance (DBA), DSU business students have the opportunity to observe and work with local business startups. A glimpse of the accomplishments of DSU Business students reflects well on the quality of the programs. For example, seniors consistently place in the top 10 in an international strategy competition (among over 200 participating institutions from around the world). In addition, DSU students in DECA and PBL clubs consistently rank very high in state and national business competitions. What is the study of Business? Business students study specific areas of business, which include accounting, leading to careers at accounting firms, local firms and governmental agencies; finance, leading to careers in such areas as banking, brokerage activities and investment, and positions as financial analysts in industry; management, leading to jobs in various areas of management in business, government and other institutions; and marketing, leading to positions in sales, advertising, retailing, and distribution. Mission The mission of the Udvar-Hazy School of Business at Dixie State University is to prepare its students for successful employment, advanced learning, and service to community. We are committed to providing an environment that embraces experiential learning, stimulates academic excellence, and incorporates ethical considerations. Baccalaureate Programs The Business Administration bachelor s degree at Dixie State University is directed toward students who are seeking a general business degree.
