Welcome to our Web Site! If you are here looking for information on an excellent undergraduate or graduate business program, please let me tell you a little bit about the Campbell School of Business.

The liberal arts orientation of Berry College makes it a wonderful place to study the art and the science of business. In today's business environment, being good enough is no guarantee of finding employment or developing a career. With the rapid changes in business technology and the consolidation of global economies, business people must be able deal with change quickly and effectively. Business needs people who can think analytically, creatively and practically and can work effectively in teams. Organizations hire graduates who can solve problems, can communicate effectively in both written and oral formats, can be comfortable working in teams and leading teams, are proficient in the use of information technologies, are knowledgeable about the global environment in which they must function, and understand the need to work with culturally diverse customers, subordinates, peers, and managers. These are all goals of our programs in the Campbell School.

At the Campbell School of Business, it is our goal to graduate individuals with the ability to live fulfilling professional and personal lives. We want all of our graduates to be prepared for successful careers in the globally competitive and technological environment of tomorrow. We want to offer an education to each graduate that enables him or her to make positive contributions to the broader society in which they live. To accomplish this, we take a personal interest in our students. The combination of small classes and an environment of close significant contact with our faculty allow our students unique opportunities for personal growth and development.

Our dedicated faculty is committed to teaching first and foremost. We do not use any teaching assistants here. Our faculty is also involved with their disciplines through their research. Many of our students work directly with faculty on their research projects.

The Campbell School encourages students to take advantage of opportunities for internships, and Cooperative Education which provide real-world exposure that provide our students with relevant, practical experience while earning credit toward their degree. Finally, we seek to maintain a high-quality group of students in our programs. We seek students who possess the following characteristics:

- an eagerness to learn;
- the ability to think creatively;
- the ability to communicate;
- the ambition to succeed;
- and a commitment to life long learning.

The Campbell School's Executive Advisory Council, a group of approximately 40 executives are involved in our curriculum and planning processes to ensure that our programs will continue to meet the needs of employers.

If you are a graduate of the business program at Berry, you are Campbell School Alum. I welcome you to our web site and invite you to visit us in Green Hall. Many things have changed in the last few years, none more dramatically than our facilities. We are now housed in a state-of-the-art facility with multi-media classrooms. I look forward to working with the alumni, business community, and friends of the College as we build on the successes and traditions of Berry College to establish the Campbell School of Business as one of the South's premier business schools. Your input is critical to the success of this program, so I invite you to contact me with any comments or suggestions.
