History

Business courses were first offered at the Massachusetts Agricultural College in the early years of the twentieth century, expanding rapidly during the 1930s and 1940s in response to student demand. The Board of Trustees established the School of Business Administration in 1947, and within seven years, it was conferring graduate degrees, including doctorates after 1967. The school was accredited at the undergraduate level by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business in May 1958, and in March 1959, the Board of Trustees authorized the establishment of four academic departments within the school: Accounting, General Business and Finance, Management, and Marketing. In September 1967, a program leading to the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Business Administration was introduced.

In 1964, the school moved to its current building in the heart of the UMass Amherst campus. In 1983, the School of Business Administration changed its name to School of Management. The Isenberg School of Management was named after Eugene Isenberg in 1998. Gene was Chairman and CEO of Nabors Industries at the time, a world leader in gas and petroleum drilling. Gene's gift with his wife, Ronnie, was the largest contribution from an individual in UMass Amherst's history. The Isenberg's gift facilitated the school's campaign to build its 42,000-square-foot Harold Alfond Management Center addition, and established several endowed chairs for the campus.

Modern Expansion

The business school is currently undergoing 70,000-square-foot expansion for a $62 million project to add classrooms, labs, and student-facing spaces. It is set to open in 2019 and is built by architects-Boston-based Goody Clancy and Bjarke Ingels Group (Big) of New York and Denmark.
