About

Why Your Support Matters

The mission of the Rucks Department of Management is to create and disseminate knowledge about the effective and ethical management of organizations by leveraging and developing resources and understanding environmental opportunities and demands. Our faculty members pursue diverse research agendas to advance knowledge of strategic management, the behavior of individuals and groups in organizations, and the management of human resources.

Every day, we’re driven by our commitment to developing critical knowledge related to these topics and to integrating it into undergraduate and graduate curricula. Through innovative instruction, impactful research, and meaningful engagement with students and partners, the department prepares the next generation of leaders in business, government, and academia to navigate complex challenges and to create positive changes in their organizations and communities.

Our faculty promotes excellence through scholarly achievement, innovative instruction, and outstanding service to students, the academic profession, and our external partners. Together, these efforts build stronger teams across our campus and beyond.

This LSU Giving Day, your gift will strengthen the winning teams that drive the Rucks Department of Management to do what it does best: empower Tigers to lead, learn, and make a difference. Thank you for your support!
