University of St Andrews Business School

Creating society's future leaders

Society is facing unprecedented and rapidly-evolving global challenges, from geopolitical tensions and the existential threat of climate crisis to social, economic and health inequalities and technological change.

It is critical that we inspire and equip the next generation of leaders to understand the geopolitical framework in which they operate and to be socially responsible, ethical and original business thinkers.

The University’s seven-century legacy of academic excellence, tradition of social consciousness, and compact size have provided us with the perfect context within which to create a world-leading  business school that is focused on developing the interdisciplinary skills leaders need to address these challenges.

University of St Andrews Business School will be co-located along with our renowned School of International Relations in the ‘New College’ site on South Street to create a modern centre of business and geopolitical excellence in the heart of historic St Andrews.

How you can support us

The £140 million capital project to design and build the ‘New College’ is at the heart of the Making Waves Campaign. We are seeking philanthropic support both for the capital project and for faculty posts and postgraduate scholarships to develop the University of St Andrews Business School’s profile and reputation as a centre of excellence for business research, and to attract and retain world-leading academics. 

Help us to make waves of influence by enabling future leaders to begin their research career, expand their networks, and start to change the world.
