Richard A. Chaifetz School of Business

A new approach to business education

At the Chaifetz School of Business, we believe business education should prepare students to do more than earn a degree. It should prepare them to thrive in an AI-enabled, team-driven economy and make a meaningful impact throughout their lives and careers. 

Rooted in Saint Louis University's Jesuit tradition and guided by our values of character, courage, caring community and career aspirations, we combine academic excellence with immersive experiences that help students put knowledge into action. Along the way, students strengthen their critical thinking skills, develop confidence in their abilities and learn to lead with purpose in an increasingly connected world.

This commitment comes to life through The Chaifetz Way, our distinctive approach to career preparation, leadership development and AI insight. By integrating humanistic leadership, AI readiness and real-world professional experiences throughout the student journey, we help students develop the wisdom, perspective and practical experience needed to succeed in today's economy and adapt to what's next.

As part of Saint Louis University, students also join a network of 27 Jesuit colleges and universities across the United States, expanding opportunities for connection, collaboration and professional growth.

Imagine what's next. We're ready to help you make it a reality.
