BREECH SCHOOL OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION STRATEGIC PLAN
2015-2020
OVERVIEW
INTRODUCTION
The Breech School of Business Administration embraces the responsibility of preparing students for
leadership roles in today’s ever-changing, fast-paced business world. Our vision is to be a premium source
of leaders to the business community. Our programs are designed to prepare ethical, knowledgeable,
and engaged business graduates who are capable of making immediate contributions at work and in their
community.
To prepare ethical leaders for the global business community we aspire to engage our students through
current, innovative business classes taught by experienced and credentialed faculty who purposefully
connect theory with practical learning experiences. To achieve our vision, the Breech School of Business
Administration requires that we continue offering high quality business programs that focus on
collaborative learning and dynamic interaction between students and faculty. Additionally, exposing
students to academic and professional opportunities is also instrumental to our vision, to help students
be “job ready” when leaving the Breech School.
