The McColl School of Business
The McColl School of Business educates students to become successful business and professional
leaders who are competent, understand the importance of character and are committed
to their communities.
We seek to prepare individuals for careers by providing high quality, innovative undergraduate
and graduate business education which provides students the opportunity to develop
business and management abilities.
We offer a comprehensive set of educational programs and enrichment opportunities which
serve as important educational resources for the Charlotte region and beyond. Our vision is to
build a brand that identifies the McColl School name with “leadership.” We believe that organizations
need leaders with integrity at all levels and that leadership can be learned. We also believe
that beyond mastering basic business skills, students need to understand their own values
and draw on their knowledge and values to influence people within their organizations and communities.
We focus on leadership when recruiting faculty, developing curricular content and
structure, connecting with our business community and conveying to our students the concepts
of leadership in association with competence, character, and community.
The McColl School offers two programs leading to the Master of Business Administration
(MBA) degree, and one program leading to the Master of Science (MS) degree in Organization
Development.
