KU delivering expertise on global level via online learning - Mark Fagan, Lawrence Journal-World
When the global economy demands the expertise of Jayhawks, KU is poised to deliver. “This is the first of its kind in the country,” said Bob Walker, spokesman for Shawnee-based Bayer Animal Health, which is working with the KU’s School of Business to offer a master of business administration program focused on animal health. “For Bayer, we’re targeting using this program to attract scientific talent into Bayer that will help us manage our business, from both a scientific and a business perspective. This gives them the tools to do that. “We have some very strong aspirations for this program.” From the animal-health MBA to a distance-learning master’s program in pharmaceutical chemistry, KU leaders are learning to answer the needs of businesses that long have come to rely on the expertise, knowledge and experience of the university’s graduates.
