In January 2006, the University's College of Business was named after the legendary former Chairman and CEO of the General Electric Company, John F. Welch. Identified throughout the world of business simply as "Jack," he was associated with GE for an incredible 41 years. Fortune magazine has called him the Manager of the Century, and Business Week dubbed him "one of the greatest innovators of the past 75 years." As part of his commitment to the University, Mr. Welch has volunteered to be actively involved with the Jack Welch College of Business through ongoing advice and guidance. He will assist the College as it continues its mission of providing students access to a top-quality education and preparation for careers in business.
Initially called John F. College of Business, the school was renamed Jack Welch College of Business in 2015.
