The School

The A. Gary Anderson Graduate School of Management (AGSM) emphasizes growing strengths in the areas of marketing, supply chain management, accounting, and finance. The school resides in a 30,000-square-foot home featuring state-of-the-art research and teaching facilities.

The M.B.A. curriculum prepares students to excel in a competitive environment marked by unprecedented challenges and technological advances. Communication and computer skills are incorporated into a global approach to both the art and science of management. Most elec- tive courses are seminar size and encourage participative learning. Computers and software are used extensively for teaching and effective management decision making. An internship program assists students in obtaining experi- ence in their professional fields. In addition to regularly scheduled course work during the day, courses are offered in the evening to permit career professionals to pursue the M.B.A. part time. The mixture of career professionals and recent baccalaureate graduates provides a stim- ulating and well-rounded classroom environ- ment.

The AGSM Microcomputer Facility offers soft- ware packages in statistics, databases, spread- sheets, financial planning, management sci- ence, econometrics, graphics, word processing and Internet connections. The facility is used for teaching, class demonstrations, theses, and research projects. Students learn computing skills in AGSM courses with special computing requirements, and in optional seminars.

The UCR Library, with more than 2 million bound volumes, 13,000 serials, and 1.6 million microforms, including extensive literature in the management field, provides substantial support for student and faculty research. An MBA Student Association represents stu- dent interests at faculty meetings and arranges student activities. Student evaluations of cours- es are an important part of the evaluation of curriculum and faculty performance.

The A. Gary Anderson Graduate School of Management is accredited by AACSB Interna- tional - The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.
