Tommy & Victoria Baker School of Business We are part of a teaching institution with a long tradition of high quality education and leadership development.

We value teaching first, but recognize that scholarship and service are its essential complements. We encourage and reward all types of scholarship, emphasizing a balance between applied and pedagogical research, with discipline-based scholarship in a supporting role. Our focus on leadership development arises from our historical roots as The Military College of South Carolina. The core undergraduate program requires that all students be members of the South Carolina Corps of Cadets, which serves as a learning laboratory for leadership. We also offer a non-military evening and summer undergraduate program, as well as an excellent graduate program, that focus on leadership development through both coursework and ancillary programs such as our Leadership Forum.

Here's another look at BSB students participating in The Citadel’s annual Leadership Day, an opportunity to learn leadership lessons beyond the classroom.

Experiences like these give our students the opportunity to learn from accomplished professionals, ask questions and see how the principles they study in Bastin Hall are applied in the real world.

Thank you to everyone who helped make Leadership Day a meaningful experience for our students!

BSB students took learning beyond the classroom today during The Citadel’s annual Leadership Day.

Some of our students spent time with members of the Class of '79, who shared their experiences, perspectives and leadership lessons gained throughout their careers and lives.

Other BSB students ventured off campus to see leadership and business in action, visiting Ethos Athletic Club and Lineage Logistics. These experiences gave students an opportunity to learn directly from professionals and gain insight into leadership, operations and organizational success in real-world settings.

Leadership Day is an important part of The Citadel experience, connecting students with people and organizations that demonstrate the principles they study in the classroom.

Congratulations to Dr. Mark S. Rosenbaum! The International Journal of Emerging Markets accepted an article he co-authored. Based on interviews with 45 mothers in Colombia, “Constrained Risk Rationalization: How Economically Vulnerable Consumers Justify Counterfeit Purchases in Colombia’s Informal Markets” examines how economic necessity, social norms, and other factors influence decisions to purchase counterfeit goods, offering new insight into consumer behavior and vulnerability in emerging markets.

This work reflects the Baker School of Business’s commitment to research that addresses consequential marketplace issues and advances understanding of consumers, services, and emerging economies.
