Academics
Price, flexibility, and reputation are the cornerstones of Illinois State University’s College of Business. Led by professors who “provide the students with learning experiences that effectively prepare us for the business world” and an administration which gives students “a strong foundation for the program by frequently communicating school objectives, supplying valuable resources, and assisting students outside the classroom,” this is a school that offers “big school resources and ranking at a budget price.”Students say ISU has “the right combination of location, cost, reputation, and challenging coursework,” making it so that they feel “there was no other choice for me in terms of graduate schools.” The five academic departments of ISU’s College of Business and the highly-focused centers of study within each—the Institute for Entrepreneurial Studies and the International Business Institute within the department of Management and Quantitative Methods, for instance—allow students to refine job skills relevant to their field. The “challenging coursework” here is offset by professors who “challenge students to critically think and are genuinely enthusiastic to teach us.”
