    the world’s leading business schools for its strong track record in both

    culture at both the faculty and student levels. Within the business
    school, the Management & Organization department is particularly proud
    to be viewed as one of the strongest departments (please visit

    seeking outstanding colleagues to make an excellent department even
    stronger.

    The Smith School has leading edge MBA and undergraduate programs, a
    rapidly expanding portfolio of executive education programs including
    EMBA programs in both the US and China, as well as a strong doctoral
