Dean's Message 


NMDA_image001.jpgWelcome to the College of Business!

As we approach a fourth straight year of enrollment growth, we continue to make progress on our vision to be the destination business college in the Southwest and Borderlands:

When you come to see us this year, you might notice a new look in a few of our spaces: 

Our main building, the Business Complex, got an upgraded look:

Our Professional Golf Program lab was upgraded with two new TrackMan bays, providing our program ith the kind of technology found at Top 100 Resort or Country Club:

We have also indentified physical spaces for our two key student-focused initiatives, the Center for Student Professional Development (CSPD), and the Center for Sales & Business Ethics (CSBE). Those are still being worked up, so pictures to come later!

The hallmark events of these initiatives, the Student Professional Development Seminars, and the Ethics Boot Camps continue to grow and prepare our students to be posed, confident, and ethical leaders.

In addition, we will be re-establishing our Bloomberg Financial Lab this year, bringing cutting-edge Bloomberg Financial terminals and a wealth of advanced data and analytics to enrich the education of our students. This summer we partnered with NABA to run our first Accounting Career Awareness Program (ACAP), a five-day in-residence program for high school juniors and seniors who want to learn more about careers in accounting, finance, and business in general.

As always, I encourage you to come and see us when you are in Las Cruces. While here, check out the elevators in our three business college buildings (Business Complex, Guthrie Hall, Domenici). The inside of each has been wrapped with an iconic scene of the Organ Mountains or campus. I won't spoil them here, let us know when you find them!

GO AGGIES!
