Message from the Dean

Welcome to the Jack Welch College of Business & Technology. We educate leaders to make a positive contribution to the community and prepare for success in the evolving and complex global business environment.

As a member of the faculty for 12 years, I am honored to be leading such a talented and motivated group of educators, students and staff at the WCBT, which includes SHU’s School of Computer Science & Engineering. Here, we are committed to integrating business and technology across all of our programs because we understand their combined strength.

Located on SHU’s West Campus, the former global headquarters of GE, our state-of-the-art labs, studios, co-working spaces and classrooms give you the unique and valuable advantage of cutting-edge, highly experiential learning that will prepare you well for lifelong personal and professional success.

Our forward-thinking programs are grounded in the Catholic intellectual tradition, deepening your critical and analytical skills, cultural awareness and sense of social responsibility. The AACSB-accredited business curriculum emphasizes core knowledge, communication skills and ethics and we stress hands-on learning and a firm grasp of emerging technology and the global marketplace.

Sacred Heart students are engaged in a meaningful journey that, through reflection and application, forms ethical leaders positioned for significant and positive impact in their communities. I look forward to guiding this premier institution on the exciting road ahead.
