The University of Â鶹´«Ã½<\/span> at Hilo<\/a> College of Business and Economics (CoBE<\/abbr>) was awarded reaccreditation by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB<\/abbr>) International<\/a>. <\/p>\n

“I am pleased that the AACSB<\/abbr> Board has concurred with the recommendation of AACSB<\/abbr>’s Continuous Improvement Review Committee, and decided to continue the accreditation of the UH Hilo College of Business and Education,” said College of Business and Economics Dean Krishna Dhir<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“I am most grateful to everyone in CoBE<\/abbr> for their tireless work and commitment, and for the unstinted support of Chancellor Straney, the vice chancellors, my fellow deans, directors and division heads, throughout my tenure.”<\/p>\n

AACSB<\/abbr> accreditation represents the highest standard of achievement for business schools worldwide with less than five percent of the world’s 13,000 business programs earning AACSB<\/abbr> accreditation. <\/p>\n

The next scheduled AACSB<\/abbr> re-accreditation visit will follow the submission of the college’s next fifth year report during the fall of 2019–2020.<\/p>\n
