| | UAH to award MBA starting in December(9/22/2007)In moves to comply with accreditation recommendations while also reducing confusion, the University of Alabama System board of trustees has approved two name changes in the business school at The University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH). The trustees approved changing the name of UAH’s general master's degree in business from the Master of Science in Management (MSM) to the Master of Business Administration (MBA), a change that was recommended in 2003 by an accreditation review team from the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, International (AACSB). The newly minted MBA degrees will be awarded starting in December 2007 to students who finish what was the MSM program this fall. The UAS board also changed the name of the college, which had been the College of Administrative Science. The “new” College of Business Administration moves UAH into compliance with recommendations made during the school’s most recent AACSB accreditation review. The peer team recommended in 2003 that UAH change the name of its College of Administrative Science before the next accreditation cycle, which begins in October 2008.
