BACKGROUND

Trinity University is a secular, independent, private institution, founded in 1869. Trinity offers high-quality science, liberal arts, and pre-professional programs as represented by the four schools (STEM, Arts & Humanities, Social Science and Civic Engagement, and Business) to approximately 2,500 undergraduate students from the U.S. and more than 45 countries. The attractive campus overlooks downtown San Antonio, a city rich in heritage and ethnic diversity. Additional information can be found on the Resource Guide to Trinity & San Antonio.

At the Neidorff School of Business at Trinity University, innovation meets impact. Located in the 7th largest city in the United States, where we’re redefining what it means to deliver a modern business education with bold ideas, ethical leadership, and global perspective coming together. Our AACSB-accredited programs - ranked #1 among undergraduate business schools in Texas and #27 in the nation - empower students to think strategically, lead confidently, and make ethical decisions grounded in data and purpose.

Our faculty are mentors, teacher-scholars, and catalysts for transformation. The Neidorff School thrives on collaboration across disciplines, forging powerful connections with humanities, social sciences and STEM disciplines. With cutting-edge facilities, strong industry partnerships, and a student-centered culture that prizes creativity and inclusion, Neidorff is a dynamic hub for shaping the next generation of business leaders who make a difference in the world.

Join us, and be part of a school that’s driven by purpose, powered by people, and poised for the future.

The Department of Business Administration is one of the three departments housed in the Neidorff School of Business. Home to innovative scholars and industry-connected faculty, the department advances leadership, entrepreneurship, marketing, and global business through collaborative teaching, mentorship, and applied learning. We develop ethical, well-rounded leaders through an interdisciplinary, integrated business education. Majors in the department include business administration, human resources management, international business, and marketing, and houses courses in business law and strategic management.

Our students learn business by doing business. They research alongside faculty mentors, intern with local organizations, study abroad, serve the San Antonio community, attend industry conferences, participate in consulting projects, and enter case competitions — all while gaining valuable skills and experience.

Both the Department of Business Administration and the University as a whole value and safeguard academic freedom for faculty members in their teaching and scholarship. Trinity is guided by a set of core values and is committed to implementing practices in pursuit of an inclusive campus for all students, faculty, and staff to feel welcomed and engaged in a community of learning.
