Welcome Students, Parents, and Alumni,

My name is Dan Ganster and I am the chair of the Department of Management in the College of Business at Colorado State University. This is an exciting time for our department, as well as an exciting time for any student interested in a major in business administration. Business management is changing dramatically and our students and faculty are at the forefront of that change.

The world is on the cusp of a new economy, an economy filled with possibilities to not only change business, but to change the planet. We are talking about sustainable enterprise, third-world entrepreneurship, profit with a conscience, and business as an arbiter of opportunity for the majority of the world’s population still mired in poverty.

At the Department of Management, we have a talented and diverse group of faculty members who are at the cutting edge of their fields in all the areas that comprise the field of management, including entrepreneurship, leadership, teams, negotiation, supply chain management, and business strategy. Across these specialties we weave in the principle of sustainable enterprise so our students will be prepared for leadership in the economy of tomorrow.

We hope you will learn more about us and about the exciting field of management. Through our sub-disciplines and four certificate programs we can help you build the degree you need to achieve your academic and career goals. I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best Wishes,

Dan Ganster
