A diverse, relevant curriculum

The innovative VSB curriculum is challenging and rigorous, designed to prepare you for success in the real world of global business. Through a wide range of options for major and minor courses of study—along with study abroad opportunities and technological resources including the internationally-recognized VSB Applied Finance Lab—you’ll be empowered to push yourself and reach your academic potential.

Faculty commitment to your success

VSB faculty members are widely recognized for excellence in both teaching and research. Many bring a wealth of practical experience from careers in finance, banking, sales, marketing, management, consulting, and beyond. And over 90 percent hold the highest degree in their respective discipline. With a student-to-faculty ratio of only 19:1, VSB professors are accessible and classes are small. Both core business courses and electives have fewer than 30 students. What’s more, there are no graduate teaching assistants at Villanova. All classes are taught by faculty members. VSB professors are here because they want to teach…and they want to see you succeed.

The Business Honors experience

VSB welcomes highly-motivated students who wish to pursue a well-rounded, in-depth exploration of the business world within an even smaller class size environment through the Business Honors program. In the Business Honors program, students work closely with VSB professors, Clay Center Advisors, and Peer Counselors to enhance their understanding of business and achieve their personal, academic, and career goals.
