Turner College Adds to Solid AACSB Research Portfolio

The Turner College is seeking re-accreditation by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) after the end of this calendar year. This process requires submission by the Turner College of a progress report, which is due near the middle of December of 2023. After that, an AACSB visitation team will visit the Turner College for three days in early March of 2024. A few weeks after that visit the Turner College Dean, Deb Kidder, will be notified of the results of the review by AACSB. A substantial part of this process involves judgment of the scholarly activity of the Turner College faculty. This activity includes the quantity and quality of the journal publications across the College's faculty.  A prior entry of Turner Business reported on the A-level journal publications produced by Turner College faculty. This entry focuses on the Turner College faculty that have a claim to 44 B-level journal publications since the last accreditation process.  These publications appear in 32 separate academic journals, which are pictured at the bottom of this blog entry. A total of 11 Turner College business faculty have contributed to this achievement, representing five of the College's six business disciplines.  Turner College faculty who have contributed to the organization's B-level journal publications are recognized below.
