Dean's Welcome & Team

Dean's Welcome

Welcome to the J. Whitney Bunting College of Business & Technology! Whether you are a new student taking your first steps on our beautiful Milledgeville campus or a returning student continuing your academic journey, I extend a warm welcome to you. To our esteemed alumni, cherished retired faculty and staff members, and our community partners and benefactors, you are a vital part of our vibrant community. 

Our dedicated faculty and staff are committed to fostering a supportive learning environment where every learner is empowered to thrive and achieve their fullest potential.

At the heart of our College is a commitment to delivering high-quality, forward-looking accredited academic programs deeply rooted in a public liberal arts environment. From a business perspective, a liberal arts education expands the scope of thinking and allows us to approach an issue from multiple perspectives. It also teaches aspiring business leaders the ability to communicate effectively their ideas, an issue that is increasingly important in an inter-connected global economy.

The rich blend of liberal arts, business, international, and technology-infused curriculum at the College of Business & Technology develops not only technical skillsets but also critical thinking, strong communication, and ethical decision-making, thereby preparing our graduates to lead and thrive in a dynamic global economy. To cultivate these skills, we prioritize robust experiential and hands-on learning opportunities to provide our students with a holistic educational experience.

Thank you for your continued dedication to our mission, and I look forward to seeing our College prosper further.

Go Bobcats!
