UAF business school gets new name

The University of 成人影片 Fairbanks School of Management has changed its name to the College of Business and Security Management. The change was unanimously approved by the University of 成人影片 Board of Regents during its September meeting.

The change recognizes the diversity and growth in the school鈥檚 academic programs, instruction, community outreach and research over the last two decades. CBSM has outgrown its 鈥渟chool鈥 status, and 鈥渃ollege鈥 more fully describes the breadth of its programs. The college recently added the applied management and the sport and recreation business programs. The new name also reflects the college鈥檚 robust homeland security and emergency management program. 

鈥淲e see this as a really big deal,鈥 said Mark Herrmann, CBSM dean. 鈥淭his change reflects our academic growth over the past 47 years and offers us a chance to respond to student and employee needs, keeping us relevant in a changing world.鈥  

The renaming will allow faculty and staff to better meet changing community and business needs. It also will improve CBSM鈥檚 ability to attract new 成人影片 from 成人影片 and the nation. Finally, it will enhance fundraising opportunities and put CBSM on equal footing with peer colleges and programs nationally.
