SCHOOL OF BUSINESS


The mission of the Wingate University School of Business is to serve the greater Charlotte area of the Carolinas by delivering nationally accredited bachelors and masters programs in business. Accordingly, the School of Business has the following objectives:
  • To develop and deliver a curriculum and to set educational standards consistent with those of a national accrediting body in business administration.
  • To attract and retain faculty able to foster the mission of the university and the school, and who will value teaching, applied scholarship, and professional experience.
  • To encourage students to pursue academic and professional excellence; and
  • To provide opportunities for engagement with ethical issues, involvement with cultural events, and to encounter a global perspective.

The School of Business at Wingate University strives to provide its students with a fundamental knowledge of the functions and process of business and a basic understanding of the workings of the American and global economy. By combining a liberal arts education with instruction in specific business disciplines, Wingate provides its students with an educational experience designed to provide them not only with business knowledge and skills, but also with strong ethical and moral values that hopefully will help them make a difference in today's world. All of our faculty teaching full-time possess the terminal degree and most also have experience in the business world.
