Overview
Department of Business Administration has been 30 years since the department was formally established. The primary purpose of the department is to develop talented individuals needed by businesses and companies. Currently, it boasts an international teaching staff and a wide variety of courses to choose from. Faculties with professions received from first-class Schools of Business in various countries (USA, Japan, Britain, and Germany) provide different experiences and knowledge either in the single field (Production and Operations Management, Marketing Management, Financial Management, Information Mangament, Human Resource Management, and Business Strategy) or interdisciplinary researches. As a result, students have much flexibility for learning and development. Furthermore, in response to the trends of internationalization, digitalization of business administration and corporate sustainability, the department places particular emphasis on course instruction in English and in establishing a quality learning environment for studying Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP). Teaching and instruction value both theory and practical application. As such, the department has hired many professors with rich experience in business. It also encourages students to participate in various certification exams as a way to lay a firm foundation for future development. At the same time, much effort is put into becoming a forerunner of academic research. Requirements of quality and relevancy in academic publications have become more stringent over the last few years. Also, interaction with the international academic community has been bolstered. To date, those important business journals that our faculties and students get to publish are as follows: Transportation Science、Annals of Operations Research、Decision Support Systems、Information & Management、Journal of Advertising Research、Marketing Letters、Industrial Marketing Management、IEEE Transactions of Software Engineering、Journal of Financial Intermediation、European Journal of Operational Research, etc.
