School of Business

The School of Business is founded in 2011 at ADA University. With core curricula focusing on both breadth and depth of knowledge, experiential learning, and a skill set necessary to succeed in the ever-changing labor market, we strive to be world-class business school. We prepare graduates who are ready to impact and challenge the boundaries of conventional thinking about the ways in which business is conducted and policy is formulated. Our graduates are entrepreneurs of innovative spirit with a solid sense of ethics, honor, and integrity.

At ADA School of Business, we strive to cultivate highly educated, socially responsible and ethical citizens who can succeed in the local and global business environment. We strive to be the premier business school in the region, offering our students a high quality and innovative learning experience.

ADA University School of Business is ACBSP (Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs) member since November 2019. In March 2020, we have reached the “candidacy” status, which means the accreditation process of our MBA and BBA programs has officially started and is to be completed in 2024. ACBSP accreditation focuses on recognizing teaching excellence, determining student learning outcomes, and a continuous improvement model.

The main purpose of this process is to provide external validation of our degree programs by benchmarking against a set of external quality standards. It provides reassurance both that the service meets the needs of customers, but also that it matches the quality that the market expects. Achieving accreditation will also help position our programs with external audiences and join a prestigious network of accredited business schools. Finally, data from the accreditation process can be used to support internal quality improvement, both for content and delivery of programs.
