Goodman School of Business

Goodman School of Business is a business school at Brock University in St. Catharines, Ontario, Canada. The business school provides undergraduate and graduate-level education options. On October 12, 2012, Brock made the announcement that the Goodman School of Business would replace the Faculty of Business. The school bears the name of Ned Goodman's family, a businessman and financial specialist. The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) International has granted The Goodman School of Business accreditation. Only 20 business schools in Canada and less than 5% of all business schools globally have achieved this accreditation, which is the gold standard in management education.  

The Goodman School of Business is located in Taro Hall. It was created by Moriyama & Teshima Architects and debuted in 1990. Administrative offices, such as the Dean's office and lecture halls, are the main uses of Taro Hall. It has three lecture halls for graduate students (MBA, MAcc, IMAcc, and MSc), six lecture halls for undergraduate students (BBA & BAcc), and several break-out rooms for group study. For graduate business students alone, a student lounge and computer commons are available.
