For Adams Kondeh, his job is not just about crunching numbers as an auditor in Washington, D.C., it is also about preparing for his future.
Adams’ journey started in Africa, and brought him to UW-Whitewater. He obtained a degree as a Master in Professional Accountancy, MPA.
Soon after accepting a job as an auditor, he decided he wanted more out of his education.
The college of business and economics (CoBE) has seen dramatic change in the last few decades.
Teleprompters, green screens and smart boards have replaced typewritters and main frames. The reputation of the college has led to a record enrollment.
The College of Business and Economics today is much different than its predecessor, commercial education.
From fringe curriculum to an international entity, the university’s business school was launched from humble beginnings, but is now considered by many to be a leader in business education.
After considering a student body request to view the big picture, the College of Business and Economics hosted its first State of the College Address last Wednesday.
It was organized by the Dean’s Advisory Council to inform students of priorities of the College and changes they can expect to see.
This included a new curriculum, a revised mission statement and a campaign to improve the College’s reputation as an elite business school.
