The only institution of higher education that have three colleges accredited by the AACSB at once.

On February 21, 2016, the very first day of a new semester, ISU brought exciting news to all students and faculty members. President Shaw Jei-fu formally announced that the College of Management (COM), the College of Tourism and Hospitality (COTH), and the International College (IC) have been accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). It is a record-breaking achievement that three colleges earn the AACSB accreditation at the same time. In addition, ISU is included in the list of schools receiving the accreditation at the beginning of 2016, the 100th anniversary of the AACSB. With the accreditation, not only is ISU’s teaching quality internationally recognized, but it is among the top 5% of universities around the world.
