General InformationThe McIntire School of Commerce offers a professional program that includes the study of the fundamental disciplines underlying the management of organizations. Thomas Jefferson, founder of the University of Virginia, believed a liberal arts education was key to a successful professional career. In keeping with that tradition, students spend the first two years of undergraduate work combining liberal arts and business prerequisite courses. Students, including those from other schools, typically apply for admission to McIntire during their second year. McIntire students tackle the School’s Integrated Core Experience (ICE), a continuously evolving third-year curriculum that updates and refines the presentation of core business knowledge and skills. The primary goal of the ICE program is to prepare McIntire students for the dynamic, changing realities of today’s business world. Fourth-year students choose one or more specialized area(s) of concentration: Accounting, Finance, Information Technology, International Business, Management, and Marketing. Advanced courses in each area are provided to form a total program that is both integrative and comprehensive. The McIntire School prepares students for an array of future opportunities, including graduate and professional school. Part of that preparation is the emphasis on integrative group projects and the case method of instruction in which students analyze complex business situations. The thousands of alumni who enjoy prominent positions throughout the world, as well as the national ranking evidence the success of the McIntire program and reputation the school has achieved. HistoryBACK TO TOPThe University of Virginia was one of the first institutions in the United States to introduce the subject matter of economics into its curriculum. Since the University’s first session in 1825, courses of study in this field have been available. It was not until 1906 that the School of Economics was established as a separate unit within the College of Arts and Sciences. In 1920, a division of business administration was created in the James Wilson School of Economics. In 1921, a donation from alumnus Paul Goodloe McIntire made it possible to establish the McIntire School of Commerce and Business Administration. For the next 31 years the McIntire School operated as a distinct division of the College of Arts and Sciences, but its work was closely integrated with the James Wilson School of Economics. In 1952, the University’s Board of Visitors approved the establishment of the McIntire School as a professional school to be administered as a separate unit of the University, distinct from the College of Arts and Sciences. The School TodayBACK TO TOPThe McIntire School is a separate division of the University in the same sense as are the Schools of Architecture, Graduate Business Administration, Education, Engineering, Law, and Medicine. The McIntire School confers the Bachelor of Science in Commerce and offers Master of Science degrees in Accounting and Management 0f Information Technology. The bachelor's degree is conferred after a four-year program of studies in which the first two years are spent in another college or university in courses approved by the McIntire School. In the 2004-2005session, the undergraduate student body numbered 660 and the faculty 65. The school is located in Monroe Hall on the Central Grounds of the University. The building contains classrooms, seminar rooms, and administrative and faculty offices. Computer facilities located in the building include a computer laboratory, capital markets room and trading room complex, multimedia classrooms, and terminals linked to other University computing facilities. In addition to the facilities in Monroe Hall, the University’s extensive libraries and computing systems are available to students of the McIntire School. Address McIntire School of Commerce AccreditationBACK TO TOPThe McIntire School was elected to membership in the American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business in 1925. In 1981, the school became accredited to offer programs at the graduate level as well as the undergraduate level. Accreditation is offered only to those schools that meet the strict academic standards and program requirements prescribed by the AACSB. In 1982, the school became one of the initial 13 schools in the nation to have both its undergraduate and graduate accounting programs accredited under new AACSB standards for the separate accreditation of accounting programs.
