“AACSB accreditation recognizes institutions that have demonstrated a focus on excellence in all areas, including teaching, research, curriculum development, and student learning,” said Stephanie M.

School of Business at Macau University of Science and Technology (MUST) was founded in 2000, officially launched AACSB International Accreditation in 2016, followed by 7 years of self-evaluation and continuous improvement in strict accordance with the 15 international standards of AACSB Accreditation, and finally successfully completed the Peer Review Team (PRT) visit on March 20-23, 2023. During the exit meeting held on March 23, 2023, the PRT Chair, Dean Tootoonchi, concluded that “the School of Business presented evidence of continuous improvement and high quality in its academic programs, activities, teaching, research, and assurance of student learning. The school successfully met or exceeded the requirements for the Accreditation Standards.”
“MUST is honored to receive the prestigious AACSB accreditation for our School of Business. This honor is a recognition that the MUST School of Business provides high-quality business education and impactful research that has a positive societal impact,” said President Joseph Hun-Wei LEE.
“We are proud to achieve the AACSB accreditation and be positioned among the top 6% of business schools globally,” said Dean Ni Sheng. “Over the last seven years the School of Business has established a robust quality management system, ensuring continuous improvement. We greatly appreciate all the support we received throughout the AACSB accreditation journey. My sincere thanks go to the MUST executives, former deans, the leadership team, students, faculty, staff, and alumni.”
“Macau University of Science and Technology’s commitment to earning accreditation is a true reflection of their dedication—not only to their students, alumni network, and greater business community, but to the higher education industry as a whole,” said Bryant. “Today’s students are tomorrow’s business leaders, and the addition of the Macau University of Science and Technology to the network of AACSB-accredited business schools will have a lasting positive impact for their institution, both locally and globally.”
