A College on the Move
At the Ivy College of Business, we are proud to have some of the top minds in business on our team—our faculty.
That does not happen by accident. During my first five years here at the Ivy College of Business, we more than doubled faculty research funding and in 2018, we had 109 publications in peer reviewed journals. We have increased the number of female faculty members by 45 percent, and funded eight additional named positions.

Our name may be new, but our impact is not.
That’s the message we are sending with our refreshed brand, which we have been developing since being named the Debbie and Jerry Ivy College of Business in September, 2017.
As the first named college at Iowa State University, we explored this new adventure with excitement—and honestly, a little fear. We are the first ones at the university to venture down this path. We want to do this correctly because our sister colleges on campus will look at our work when they become named, and we are confident that will happen!
