Dr. Nory Jones
by Krystle Reilly |

|
Dr. Jones has a Ph.D. in Management Information Systems with
a focus in Knowledge Management from the University
of Missouri, Columbia.
She joined the faculty of the Maine
Business School
in September, 2001, teaching undergraduate and graduate classes in Management
Information Systems. In June 2007, she became Interim Director of the Office
of Graduate Business Programs.
Dr. Jones is working to improve the operational
efficiencies of the graduate
business school
programs . She hopes to increase enrollments to
100 full-time MBA’s and 30 full-time MSA’s. Her goal is to reach
these numbers to create a critical mass so that more electives and tracks can
be offered. She also wants to increase the international student population
as well as build more relationships with partner schools around the globe for
exchange programs for graduate students. Finally, Dr. Jones wants to develop
strong relationships with our alumni and the business community.
Dr. Jones says that she hopes the above changes create “A great
MBA/MSA program that is positioned as a small cohesive community that prepares
students to become leaders in businesses through exceptional critical thinking,
problem solving, and appreciation for ethics and social responsibility”.
