MESSAGE FROM DEAN C.T. BAUER COLLEGE OF BUSINESS Latha Ramchand Dean and Professor, Finance C. T. Bauer College of Business University of Houston We live in interesting times. As markets improve and economies come out of recession, global demand for energy is expected to increase. With this, the demand for energy professionals is expected to expand significantly. Houston is the energy capital of the world and a thriving global city. The C.T. Bauer College of Business, at the University of Houston has leveraged its location and access to the energy industry to build a curriculum that is designed to develop the human capital that the industry needs. Combining academic expertise with industry experience, our business school has graduated alumni who are now leading the energy industry in Houston, in North America, and in China. We look forward to growing our partnership with the Great Lakes Institute of Management so we can add our graduates to the ranks of companies serving India’s crucial needs in energy. I have no doubt that they will help shape the future of energy here. Bauer College offers the most comprehensive energy management curriculum in the world, with the deepest program portfolio - energy economics, accounting, finance, IT and the only global energy management program for those in the energy industry. Our goal is to be a resource for the energy industry and help bring together academia, the industry, policy makers and students. Bauer frequently hosts talks by leaders from virtually every major energy corporation in the world. These events are fascinating and always provide our students with a valuable perspective including how CEOs define leadership. I see the potential for us to replicate this engaging experience at Great Lakes. As you can see, we have a clear advantage in this realm. We have a strong pool of faculty expertise and a proven track record of delivering and teaching programs that produce graduates well prepared and poised to bring advanced knowledge to the world’s largest and most vital industry. I want to extend a warm welcome to you as you start your program and wish you all the very best.
