Innovision Fall 2019

SPRING 2019 | 3 The College of Business at Kutztown University continues to make strides in strengthening and expanding our academic offerings. Our new supply chain program officially launched this past fall, and we have two other new programs coming on board: Human Resource Management will be available in spring, and Entrepreneurship, which will be available fall 2020. Our Sport Management faculty have recently made significant updates to our Fitness Administration minor and are working on an online Health Coaching certificate. We have welcomed new faculty and staff to the COB this fall, as you will see in these pages. Ms. Kimberly O’Neill joined us as Assistant Dean; her primary responsibilities include accreditation, assessment and workload planning. She certainly hit the ground running on her arrival, as she worked with us to prepare our AACSB Continuous Improvement Review report which we recently submitted. Also joining the faculty is Mr. Jerry Kelly (soon to be Dr. Kelly), who teaches in our marketing program. He is helping to develop essential marketing analytics skills for our students, which are in high demand. So many people contribute to the success of the College of Business, and it is our hope that we capture this in our magazine. We gratefully acknowledge the all the support we receive from alumni, faculty, friends, business organizations, and community members. Your involvement is an essential resource in promoting and sustaining the excellence of our business programs.
