its MBA offerings with a new <a href=\"https:\/\/business.wright.edu\/master-of-business-administration\/concentrations#defense-acq\">Defense Acquisition<\/a> concentration, designed to prepare

Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and the region\u2019s defense ecosystem,\u201d said Rachel Sturm, Ph.D., associate dean of the Raj Soin College of Business. \u201cBeing able to provide students with business and management expertise relevant to the complex acquisition environment will continue to make Wright State students stand out as they prepare to enter the career field.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To
