Welcome from the Dean

Welcome to the Harley Langdale Jr. College of Business Administration!

Whether you’re exploring our programs for the first time or are already part of our community, we are glad you are here. At the Harley Langdale Jr. College of Business, we prepare students not just for their job but for a lifetime of leadership, innovation, and impact. Our students graduate ready to thrive in a rapidly changing, data-driven, and globally connected business world.

We are proud to hold accreditation from AACSB International for both our business and accounting programs—a distinction earned by less than 5% of institutions worldwide. This dual accreditation reflects our deep commitment to excellence in teaching, student success, research, and societal impact. Our curricula in both areas are continuously evolving to align with the dynamic needs of today’s business environment and global challenges.

Inside and outside the classroom, opportunities to grow and connect are everywhere. Students engage in internships, experiential learning activities, student organizations, and study abroad experiences that make learning engaging. Our faculty are not only accomplished scholars—they are also committed mentors who work closely with students on real-world projects and meaningful research.

At the Harley Langdale Jr. College of Business Administration, we value integrity, impact, and innovation. Our programs are designed to help you develop both professional and interpersonal skills that today’s employers seek. Whether you are networking with alumni, working with an advisor on your academic path, or joining a class visit to a global business hub, you will find a community that supports your growth.

As Dean—and more importantly, as someone who strongly believes in the power of education to transform lives—I invite you to explore all that we offer. Connect with our team, learn about our programs, and imagine the future you want to create. We are here to help you get there.

Thank you for considering the Harley Langdale Jr. College of Business Administration. We look forward to seeing what you will accomplish.

Warm regards,

Dr. Guclu Atinc
