The mission of the College of Commerce is to be a leader in the discovery and development of skills and knowledge as it relates to business and its global role. Our primary objective is to actively serve our students and their employers in Chicago and around the world by making use of the latest technology to provide innovative educational programs. Our faculty members have a responsibility to maintain their academic and professional qualifications, primarily through discipline-based scholarship, but also through contributions to practice and through research in support of teaching. The College focuses its teaching and research on both the current business setting and important future issues, while providing service to both the academic and professional communities. The College seeks to serve individuals and organizations desiring access to the highest quality business education as a means to achieve a full range of intellectual and professional goals from the perspective of ethical and responsible leadership. The students, staff, and faculty, and other members of the University community strive to provide each other with the knowledge and experience needed to fulfill their intellectual and professional goals. This is a cooperative effort to create a framework for solving business problems within a global society. The College holds high-quality teaching and pedagogical innovation to be just as important as scholarship and research.
