The standards require excellence in strategic management and innovation with the active participation of students, faculty and staff, and academic and professional engagement.<br \/>\n\t<br \/>\n\t&quot;Accreditation demonstrates that UW Bothell School of Business students are receiving an education that is recognized nationally as meeting the highest standards,&quot; said Randy Serroels, a 2001 MBA graduate and retired senior director of engineering at Siemens Healthcare.<br \/>\n\t<br \/>\n\tBusiness courses at UW Bothell were first offered in 1993 in offices at Canyon Park, then in 2000 on the Bothell campus. The Eastside Leadership Center (ELC) was established in 2008 in Bellevue. The Business Program officially transitioned to the School of Business in 2012.<br \/>\n\t<br \/>\n\tThe school offers daytime and evening bachelor&rsquo;s degrees in business administration. Undergraduate students can specialize in accounting, entrepreneurship, finance, general business, international business, marketing, management, management information systems, retail management and technology and innovation management.<br \/>\n\t<br \/>\n\tMBA students choose between the technology MBA at Bothell and the leadership MBA in Bellevue at the ELC, which also offers a master&rsquo;s of accounting program.<br \/>\n\t <br \/>\n\tFounded in 1916, the Tampa, Florida-based AACSB provides business education intelligence, quality assurance and professional development services to more than 1,500 member organizations in 91 countries.<br \/>\n\t <br \/>\n\tAbout UW Bothell: Ranked No. 1 in the state of Washington and the Pacific Northwest on Money magazine&rsquo;s list of best colleges, UW Bothell provides access to an exceptional University of Washington education for students of tremendous potential. Offering more than 45 undergraduate and graduate degrees, options, certificates and concentrations, UW Bothell builds regional partnerships, inspires change, creates knowledge, shares discoveries and prepares students for leadership in the state of Washington and beyond.  <br \/>\n\t <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\n\tUniversity of Washington Bothell&rsquo;s School of Business has maintained its accreditation by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.
