Pamplin School of Business: Mission Statement

The mission of the Dr. Robert B. Pamplin, Jr. School of Business Administration includes the development of student competence, leadership abilities, sense of social responsibility, and global perspectives through educational excellence.

The Dr. Robert B. Pamplin, Jr. School of Business Administration was founded in 1939, and is one of only five schools of business in Oregon accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). Our goal is to provide students with innovative, challenging educational experiences that go beyond business fundamentals to develop the leadership skills and knowledge required for successful careers. This mission challenges the Pamplin School of Business Administration to provide each student with:

• opportunities to obtain a comprehensive understanding of business;
• state-of-the-art curricula taught by highly motivated and concerned faculty who are on the leading edge of their disciplines; and
• the leadership skills needed to manage organizations -- communication, problem-solving, teamwork, and utilization of technology -- taught in global and ethical contexts.
