SOUTHFIELD—Lawrence Technological University’s College of Business and Information Technology has earned a five-year extension of its accreditation by AACSB International, the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.

Founded in 1916, AACSB is the longest serving global accrediting body for business schools. Only 6 percent of the world’s 16,000 institutions of higher learning offering business degrees have earned its accreditation.

AACSB accreditation provides a framework of international standards against which business schools around the world assess the quality of their educational services. These standards ensure continuous improvement and provide focus for schools to deliver on their mission, innovate, and drive impact. AACSB-accredited schools have successfully undergone a rigorous review process conducted by their peers in the business education community, ensuring that they have the resources, credentials, and commitment needed to provide students with a first-rate, future-focused business education.

“Through accreditation by AACSB, Lawrence Technological University’s College of Business and IT has met high standards of excellence and demonstrated its commitment to the Association’s hallmarks of innovation, engagement, and impact,” said LTU President Tarek Sobh. “I commend our faculty and staff for achieving this accreditation extension.”
Lawrence Tech first earned AACSB accreditation in 2018.
