HistoryThe Alberta School of Business, University of Alberta was founded in 1916, when a School of Accountancy was created at the University. The first Bachelor of Commerce degrees were granted in 1924, and in 1928 a School of Commerce was formally established. In 1960, after implementing significant revisions to its curriculum, the School became a full-fledged Faculty of the University of Alberta, and in 1968, the Faculty of Business Administration and Commerce became the first business school in Canada to be granted accreditation by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. In 1984, the Faculty was renamed as the Faculty of Business and moved into a new building on the University campus. In 2010 following the completion of the Preservation of the Name campaign the name of the School was formally changed to Alberta School of Business. The book A Chronicle of Commerce: A History of the School of Business was written by Dr. Bill Preshing and published in 2008. LogoThe Alberta School of Business logo, with a stylized “A, S and B” was introduced in 2000 in conjunction with the School’s official name change to the University of Alberta School of Business. The triangular “A” was meant to convey the strength of learning and faculty, and to suggest a peak, a pinnacle, a striving to the top, a higher business education. The design also features an abstract “S” and “B” and depicts the Alberta landscape of mountains flowing down into rivers, streams of knowledge, fields of dreams. The Alberta School of Business shares a culture with the Province of Alberta in the attributes of hard work, energy, and entrepreneurship.
