Study Group and Florida Atlantic University expand partnership to recruit graduate students directly into the College of Business
- Florida Atlantic University’s graduate business degrees are highly accessible and deliver an excellent return on investment with graduates serving at Microsoft, Citrix, and Office Depot.
- The university also invests in students’ development through an Executive Forum Speaker Series, in which entrepreneurs and executives from across southern Florida conduct presentations and seminars.
Study Group, a leading provider of international education, has expanded its partnership with Florida Atlantic University (FAU). The development enables students to directly gain admission into a number of FAU’s College of Business degree programs: the Master of Business Administration, and three Master of Science (MS) degrees in Business Analytics, International Business, and Supply Chain Management. Recruitment is now open for the Fall 2023 semester.
Florida Atlantic University College of Business is a proud member of the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AASCB), of which less than 5% of all business colleges belong. Additionally, FAU is a Top 50 university for entrepreneurship according to The Princeton Review (2022). FAU is in Boca Raton, Florida, a city known for its thriving entrepreneurial tech industry, offering students plenty of opportunities to gain valuable work experience. Also, with the fourth largest economy in the U.S., Florida is built for business, innovation, and entrepreneurship.
"Future business leaders need both academic knowledge and cross-cultural understanding to succeed in a global marketplace. We are proud to welcome graduate students from around the world to FAU where they will receive a first-rate business education in our innovative and nationally recognized degree programs and have opportunities to collaborate and learn from students with many different backgrounds,” said Daniel Gropper, Ph.D., Dean of FAU’s College of Business. “We look forward to welcoming our first cohort of international business students from Study Group and anticipate the unique perspectives and contributions they will bring to our community.”

Florida Atlantic University’s College of Business is in the midst of southeast Florida’s bustling economy, magnifying these opportunities,” said Ken H. Johnson, Ph.D., Associate Dean in the College of Business. “All my life, I have benefited from friendships and relationships with professional associates from all over the world. I think this will be true as well for our international business graduate students. They will experience a top-rated education, a vibrant economy, and endless networking opportunities all in a beautiful part of the world. I am very excited about continuing the success our partnership with Study Group has had with engineering students as we now look to welcome our first cohort of international business graduate students.”
