History made at Wisconsin’s largest business school 

UW-Whitewater’s College of Business and Economics (CoBE) has become the first business school in the United States to earn the EFMD Global Business School Impact System (BSIS) label, joining an elite group of just over 100 schools across 30 countries recognized for independently verified, measurable impact. CoBE is now America's first globally certified impact business school.
