The Charles H. Lundquist College of Business (also known as the Lundquist College of Business) is the University of Oregon's business school. Founded in 1914, the Lundquist College of Business has departments in accounting, finance, management, marketing, and operations and business analytics.[1]

About

The college is accredited through the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). Roughly 5% of the world's business schools have this accreditation. Additionally, the accounting program is also accredited though AACSB.[1]

The college is housed in the Lillis Business Complex. The college's current dean is Professor James Terborg.[2] Terborg stepped into the position of interim dean on September 16, 2015, taking over from previous dean Kees de Kluyver, who stepped down to pursue research and teaching.[3]

According to the 2016 US News and World Report rankings of MBA programs, the college is ranked 79th nationally.[4] In 2015, the Princeton Review named the Oregon MBA program first in the United States in the Green MBA category.[5]

The college also houses the James H. Warsaw Sports Marketing Center, which was the first program of its kind housed within a U.S. college of business. Founded in 1993, the Warsaw Sports Marketing Center provides a platform for both research and education focused on the $500 billion sports business industry. The most recent Sports Business International global rankings of sports master's programs published on June 15, 2015 placed the Oregon MBA's sports business track (coordinated by the Warsaw Center) among the top three programs in the world in the categories of Graduate's Choice as well as Student Satisfaction.

Each year, the college's Lundquist Center for Entrepreneurship presents the New Venture Championship, an investment competition for graduate students that draws competitors from all over the world.

The Department of Accounting offers a one-year Masters of Accounting (MAcc) program allowing accounting students to earn enough credits for CPA eligibility in the State of Oregon.[6] In addition, the Beta Alpha Psi Chapter is the second oldest in the nation.[7]
