UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School at University of North Carolina Chapel Hill

History

The power of education to improve lives is an enduring story. Our story began in 1919 when UNC’s leaders envisioned a role for business education at a liberal arts university. That vision ultimately became UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School.

Business has changed dramatically in the last century, as have we. But what first made us unique still remains — a tradition of innovation.

Education

For the past century, we have offered an alternative to a traditional business education. We equip students with the real-world skills to succeed and the enduring values and courage to do what’s right.

In and out of the classroom, through the curriculum we design, the experiences we provide, the collaborative culture we promote, the faculty we hire, and even the way we conduct ourselves as an employer and a member of our community, we are guided by our core values of integrity, inclusion, innovation and impact.
