The University
Seattle University is an independent university in Seattle, Washington and the largest independent university in the Northwest US, with over 7,500 students enrolled in undergraduate and graduate programs within eight schools.
The Business School

The Albers School of Business and Economics is located in Seattle University's Pigott Building.
Nestled in Capitol Hill, the Albers School of Business and Economics has a reputation as one of the premier business schools in the Northwest. Both its undergraduate and graduate programs are consistently ranked among the best in the country.
Albers’ location puts it in the heart of Seattle’s thriving business community. Some of the nation’s largest companies are headquartered in the Seattle area, including Amazon, Starbucks, Microsoft, Boeing and more. Students benefit from the school’s deep business connections through mentorships, internships, guest speakers, real business projects, and employment opportunities.
Small class sizes ensure that a student is never just a number. Low student-to-faculty ratios allow students to build close relationships with professors and peers who support them throughout their careers.
Finally, Albers is distinct for its legacy in providing values-driven education. For over 70 years, it has championed the responsibility of business to create a better society. Students are taught to be leaders who are committed to making a difference above and beyond the bottom line.
The Faculty

Whether in-person or online, Albers faculty provide high-quality education and individualized attention to all students.
Albers’ reputation as a premier business school starts with our renowned faculty, who create a stimulating atmosphere in classrooms that serve as laboratories for practical, business-world activities. The vast majority of our professors, who are leaders in their fields, hold a doctoral or other appropriate terminal degree.
Faculty members contribute firsthand to ideas circulating through the business world by publishing research in top-tier journals, such as the American Business Law Journal, Accounting, Organizations and Society, Journal of Finance, Academy of Management Journal, Journal of Applied Psychology, Journal of Marketing Research, and Journal of Business Ethics. They also contribute to the national agenda by participating in important organizations.
While producing intellectual contributions is a core responsibility of our faculty, these scholarly activities are undertaken in the service of teaching. Nourished by research activity, our professors love teaching and work hard at it. They, along with our dedicated staff, make time for students not only during class time, but also as needed throughout the day. Personal attention is key to an Albers education.
