Dean’s Message

Welcome to UNF's Coggin College of Business! We are very proud of our students, alumni and faculty. The continuing excellence of our undergraduate and graduate programs is endorsed and acknowledged by the distinctive accreditation of AACSB International, the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.

Coggin College has long maintained high standards for academic quality. An outstanding team of 90 faculty and staff prepares students for the business world' dynamic challenges. Key to the success of the College has been its close communication with North Florida's business leaders, who devote their time, experience and resources to our students and programs. In turn, in excess of 80 percent of our graduates are hired by local organizations and contribute to the success of North Florida's economy through their technical expertise and leadership capabilities.

Our undergraduate students obtain a great classroom education in business issues while they pursue majors in accounting, economics, finance, financial services, international business, logistics, management or marketing. They also take advantage of outside–the–classroom transformational opportunities such as internships, study–abroad and participation in student organizations. Our MBA, GlobalMBA and Master of Accounting programs offer important opportunities for students to continue their pursuit of learning beyond the undergraduate level.

Whether you are a prospective undergraduate or graduate student or a member of Northeast Florida's business community, I invite you to join the excitement that is the Coggin College of Business!
