UTICA — Utica College’s business programs have been awarded accreditation by the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP) Baccalaureate/Graduate Degree Board of Commissioners.
“The accreditation certifies that the teaching and learning processes within the undergraduate and graduate business programs offered through the Department of Business and Economics at Utica College meet the educational standards established by ACBSP,” Candace Grant, associate dean of business programs at UC, said in a release.
ACBSP accreditation evaluates aspects of leadership, strategic planning, relationships with stakeholders, quality of academic programs, faculty credentials and educational support, said Stephanie Nesbitt, director of the college’s MBA program.
ACBSP has accredited nearly 3,000 programs around the world, including those at Morrisville State College and the College of Saint Rose in Albany.
“Utica College has shown a commitment to teaching excellence and to the process of quality improvement by participating in the accreditation process,” said Steve Parscale, ACBSP chief accreditation officer. “This accreditation is evidence that Utica College is committed to providing the highest quality business education for its students.”
