The number of business students at Boise State has tripled over the last 30 years. As the College of Business has become one of the most attractive colleges at Boise State, there was definitely a need for a new building. Graduate and Executive Education programs will have space on the top floor to unleash their full potential. The new building will also house business help units such as the Idaho Small Business Development Center, Center for Entrepreneurship, Center for Creativity and Innovation and TechHelp. These facilities will not only foster the growth of Boise State business students, but will also help drive economic development in the Boise Valley.
The College of Business aspires to create undergraduate and graduate programs with a national reputation for their quality and innovation. The new home for business at Boise State will feature high-tech, flexible classrooms, inviting, tech-savvy team rooms, engaging areas to network, study and collaborate and a place to expand thinking with state-of-the-art resources for research. The new business building will provide:
Productive spaces for research
Interactive environment that encourages collaboration
Inspiring workspaces to recruit and retain world-class faculty
Building for the Community: A Place to Collaborate
The COBE building will be a vibrant courtyard and home to the Entrepreneur Hall of Fame and will feature convenient access to COBE resources.
“The Creation of a state-of-the-art facility for our College of Business and Economics is a top priority at the University.”
Bob Kustra, President
Boise State University
The new business building will be a source of pride for any alumnus of Boise State, but especially for former business students. Can't wait to see the finished product!
