Abstract

The School of Business at Utah Valley State College is working toward AACSB accreditation. With a relatively new Dean and Faculty Scholarship Committee, carefully designed strategies for change have been implemented, specifically related to increasing faculty research productivity. Improving this productivity is a major concern and difficult task for many schools, colleges, and universities. This article cases Utah Valley State College to provide other institutions with ideas and a framework for consideration in how to strategically increase faculty research productivity.
