In Service to the State

In Service to the State

|

Brad Price, associate professor of management information systems, was named to the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business' 2024 Class of Influential Leaders. This distinction honors “AACSB-accredited business school faculty demonstrating impact through their research.” The AACSB is the Chambers College’s accrediting body. 

Price’s research has supported WVU’s land grant mission in many fields, including COVID-19 vaccine distribution, rural healthcare and the opioid epidemic. In looking for cutting-edge solutions to practical problems, Price has exemplified what it means to serve the state and its people. 

“I want my work to have impact years before it reaches a journal,” Price said as part of his presentation at AACSB’s International Conference and Annual Meeting held April 15 in Atlanta, Ga.
