VISION STATEMENT<br />
To be the business school of choice in the Gulf Coast Region.<br />
MISSION<br />
The Mitchell College of Business provides value-added business education opportunities to wide-ranging<br />
market segments in the Gulf Coast region through innovative engagement with constituents, while<br />
supporting the area’s economic and social well-being.<br />
STRATEGIC PLAN<br />
Engage the Regional Community<br />
A successful business college must develop strategies that positively impact the business community<br />
and other external constituents. We will pursue innovative activities and strategies to partner with these<br />
communities.<br />
Enhance the Student Experience<br />
The traditional educational experience is only the starting point in preparing students for today’s<br />
competitive environment. We will develop programs that better prepare our students for this environment<br />
and that positively impact our student employers and other external constituents.<br />
Extend the MCOB Footprint<br />
A successful business college must embrace the global business environment. We will implement strategies<br />
that increase the depth and breadth of international initiatives.<br />
Employ Outstanding Faculty<br />
A vibrant and active faculty is the cornerstone of a successful business college. We will recruit, develop,<br />
support, and retain outstanding faculty by supporting and rewarding excellence in teaching and research.
