Freeman, Where Business Leaders Begin
The Freeman School of Business is dedicated to preparing current and future business leaders to contribute positively to their organizations and their communities. We accomplish this by offering world-class undergraduate and graduate business degrees that provide students with the critical skills and knowledge to be fully prepared for their careers.
Freeman Leadership
The Freeman School of Business is led by Dean Paulo Goes. Since becoming dean of the Freeman School of Business in 2021, Dean Goes has led the school through a number of initiatives such as developing a new full-time MBA curriculum, the launch of an online MBA, and the introduction of new undergraduate minors and certificate programs.
Freeman’s Competitive Edge
Freeman provides opportunities through our Centers and Institutes to consult with a startup, dive deep into the energy industry, connect with peers at institutions around the world or continue your education with a non-degree program. This along with signature classes, project-based courses and exceptional facilities allows Freeman to emphasize action learning by giving students the hands-on experience that they will use on the first day of their career and throughout their professional lives.
Study Abroad & Exchange
Freeman's Study Abroad & Exchange programs enable students to live and learn in another culture, whether for a semester or for a summer. In these immersive settings, students develop international management skills by focusing on cultural understanding and global strategies that create competitive advantages in international business.
