- Description:
- To comply with accreditation standards of the American Association of Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB), B-schools in the United States have to maintain a low student to faculty ratio. AACSB standards also affect the process of reviewing full-time faculty (FTF) members for promotion and tenure (P&T), so that the P&T review process safeguards the continued development of educational and intellectual activities in US B-schools. AACSB requires the FTF of its members to enhance the reputation of their B-schools through research and publications. This essay extends the work of Georgantzas, Hamilton, & Drobnis (1994) on the implementation of AACSB standards through feedback-loop planning, showing how a system dynamics simulation model complete with computed scenarios has been helping a small but prestigious B-school assess its future in term of student to faculty ratios.
