Research

Research identifies, clarifies, and examines emerging knowledge, concepts, and innovations that are critical to society's and humanity's potential success. The appropriate and current curriculum cannot exist without research. Faculty research fosters professional integrity, and is critical for providing excellent student instruction and preparation. When our next generation of professionals and leaders (COBE students) invest in research, they become stronger students and are better positioned for the problems and prospects of the future. Research is a form to create a change that is accessible to all and thrives from a range of approaches and perspectives.

Our research activities and initiatives at the College of Business Education have major fiscal, social, and environmental consequences on a state, global, and international scale. The exchange and distribution of the findings of these activities, usually by peer-reviewed publishing, is an essential underlying purpose of research.
