BUILDING CONSENSUS AROUND ACADEMIC RIGOR IN MANAGEMENT EDUCATION

With rising college costs, increased scrutiny on the value of a college education has led many to question how much students actually learn through higher education. These questions imply a perceived lack of academic rigor in many programs. In this symposium, presenters and participants will explore approaches to ensuring academic rigor in both undergraduate and graduate programs, as well as across institutional classifications, including masters’ and doctoral degree granting institutions and historically black colleges and universities.
