Dean's Message

Quality, value and distinction. It's a rare combination of attributes you'd be hard pressed to find anywhere else. Yet here in the MBA program at the University at Buffalo, we make it all come together-and it's been our standard of excellence for nearly 70 years.

The quality of our MBA is evident in the success of our graduates, who have risen to leadership positions in organizations both large and small all over the world. It is apparent in the expertise of our faculty, many of whom are considered leaders in their fields both in and out of the classroom. And it is manifested in the minds of our students-men and women who develop not only superior analytical and decision-making skills, but also the business savvy to apply those abilities in the real world.

The value of our MBA program is demonstrated by the quality of our curriculum and becomes even more apparent when you compare our cost to the tuition rates of other business schools. It is an added value that is an excellent return on investment for your tuition dollar.

The distinction of our MBA program is confirmed by our reputation as one of the leading public business schools in the Northeast, and by our ranking as one of the top MBA programs in the country, according to Business Week and the Wall Street Journal. It is a distinction that continues to grow with the impressive credentials of our incoming students and with the successes of our alumni.

We invite you to take a closer look at our MBA program and at the attributes that have earned the University at Buffalo School of Management an international reputation for excellence in delivering graduate management education.
