Letter from the Dean
In the Keith Busse School of Business and Entrepreneurial Leadership business is good. At USF, business isn’t all about spreadsheets and profit margins. Our Franciscan values will teach you how to be a beacon for what is right and good about business. We believe that entrepreneurship and commerce can be instruments for good, that business management skills are only as useful as your values, and that the courage to do what is right defines success of any enterprise.
We offer students the opportunity to learn the key business concepts in a classroom intensive program with internships as part of the curriculum. Or students can choose to focus more on experiential learning and receive two years of real work experience and executive mentoring prior to graduation.
Either way, at USF, Business is Good.
-Dean Helen J. Murray
