The Gatton College of Business and Economics has directly responded to the vision of UK’s Top 20 Business Plan by proposing a new building complex–one that will help us educate more students, attract and retain the best faculty and researchers, create more jobs and foster more entrepreneurship in the state of Kentucky.
Today, amidst limited and cramped space, the Gatton College–one of 16 colleges on the University’s campus–already produces nearly 20 percent of all undergraduate degrees at UK. It is among the most popular degree programs in the state, which will only grow as more emphasis is placed on job growth and creation–the chief goal of Kentucky’s higher education reforms.
And nearly 90 percent of our graduates stay here to lead Kentucky businesses and create Kentucky jobs. Yet, with severely limited space, the Gatton College currently cannot meet student demand–demand that directly results in more jobs and more Kentucky-based companies.
We need your support!
Please take a few moments to browse this section of our website. Within these pages, you’ll find out what the Gatton College is doing to help prepare more men and women for worldwide business leadership.
With the upcoming legislative session quickly approaching, we need our Kentucky alumni to contact their state representatives. In your letter or phone call, ask your legislator to join you in supporting the UK Gatton College of Business and Economics’ funding request during the 2008 Legislative Session to build a new facility to meet Kentucky’s business needs.
If you live outside the state, there are many ways you can partner with us as well. Contact the Office of Development and Advancement to find out how. Call 859.257.2767 for more information. Or email us by clicking here.
