Excerpt from the Dayton Daily News
Wright State University leaders are planning a reorganization of the university’s Raj Soin College of Business into two interdisciplinary schools, aiming to respond to student and workforce needs.
A December 2023 planning document the university shared with this news outlet shows a reorganization splitting the college into a School of Finance, Accountancy, Management Information Systems and Economics and a School of Supply Chain Management, Management and Marketing.
The move reduces six department chairs to two, returning four of the current chairs to teaching roles.
A vote on the reorganization by university trustees is slated for Friday.
Monetary savings from the reorganization can be reinvested into renewing current programs and creating new ones, the document says.
Two examples of possible new programs, according to the university document: A bachelor of science degree in sports management and a STEM-focused master’s of business administration degree.
