Welcome from the Dean

I’m excited to welcome you to a community where learning reaches far beyond the classroom. Building connections and gaining real-world experience are at the heart of everything we do.

I believe that business education should be both rigorous and relevant. That’s why our programs are designed to prepare you for leadership in today’s dynamic, global economy. Whether you’re pursuing an undergraduate degree in accounting, business administration, economics, finance, international business, management, or marketing—or a graduate degree in accounting, business, or public administration I’m confident you’ll find a curriculum grounded in both theory and practical application, starting from day one.

I’ve seen firsthand how powerful experiences can shape a student’s path, including my own. That’s why I’m proud of the opportunities we provide for hands-on learning, collaborative projects, internships, and meaningful engagement with industry professionals. I encourage you to take full advantage of our student-run ventures like managing actual money in the Wade Investment Fund and taking on marketing clients with the Brockport Brand Builders, to name a few. These experiences will help you grow personally and professionally, and build connections that last a lifetime.

Our award winning faculty are not just educators, but also mentors, researchers, and professionals who care deeply about your success. We are especially proud of the services offered by our own Center for Student Success including advising, interview prep, and internship assistance. The faculty and staff of SOBAM are committed to ensuring that every student feels supported in a welcoming, inclusive environment where your ideas matter and your goals are taken seriously.

Whether you’re just beginning your college journey or advancing your career, I believe the School of Business and Management at SUNY Brockport offers the relationships, opportunities, and experiences you need to thrive.

I invite you to explore all that we offer—and to imagine what’s possible when you take ownership of your future.
