Sigma Beta Delta, the International Honor Society for Business, Management and Administration, provides an opportunity for faculty at institutions with regional accreditation, but not specialized accreditation in business, to confer on their business, management, and administration students’ international recognition for outstanding academic achievement. This Spring, HIU's College of Business & Management honored eight individuals for excellence in their academic and professional careers in business. To be eligible for membership, a business student must rank in the top 20 percent of the junior, senior, or graduate class and be invited to membership by the SBD faculty officers.
