MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN
The Brown School of Business and Leadership, named after Baltimore builder Howard S. Brown, opened on
Aug. 15, 2008. We build on Stevenson’s strong tradition of liberal arts education and add job-relevant skills in
business and leadership. We are committed to giving our students personal attention, both in and out of the
classroom, to prepare them for successful careers in accordance with Stevenson’s distinctive Career ArchitectureSM
process.
The Brown School of Business and Leadership encompasses four departments: Accounting; Business
Administration; Information Systems; and Legal Studies. The Business Administration department includes
degree programs in business administration, digital marketing, and fashion merchandising. Within our
School, students may focus in a variety of subfields such as accounting, economics, finance, management,
entrepreneurship, international business, sports management, e-commerce, technology management,
software design, network design, computer forensics, fashion merchandising, and our newest program: digital
marketing. We encourage our students to take advantage of the B.S. to M.S. degree option, allowing them to
begin graduate studies during their junior or senior year. In addition to their bachelor’s degree, this option
allows students to earn their master’s degree in business and technology management, forensics or healthcare
management in just five years.
Our leadership, faculty, and staff are continually keeping abreast of market and technology trends to assure
that our program offerings maintain pace with all the trends in today’s globalized economy. As a result, our
students are prepared for leadership roles with the skills required to succeed in their careers—even in jobs that
are not yet defined. This approach is closely aligned with Stevenson’s Career Architecture process, which ensures
that every course is a building block for a successful career. Graduates from all of our business programs are in
high demand by employers because of Stevenson’s reputation of providing job-ready graduates.
We invite you to visit our campus and the Brown School of Business and Leadership to learn more about our
offerings. When you visit, please stop in the Dean’s office for a personal discussion.
