Preparing Students to Transform God’s Economy
APU’s School of Business and Management trains students in every aspect of business,
from people skills to digital marketing to finances, and everything in between. Through
forward-thinking education that mirrors the modern organization, our students will
lead the way in the workplace of 2030 and beyond. Our programs offer unparalleled
experiences to bolster learning, such as our Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA)
service opportunity or the chance to pitch an entreprenurial campaign at Zuventurez.
We have a place for all students to succeed in their unique business-related calling
and impact the world for Christ.

SBM Students Experience Trip of a Lifetime Across Europe
This summer, 12 Azusa Pacific University students embarked on the journey of a lifetime where they visited six countries in Europe over four weeks as part of the School of Business and Management’s annual Lapeu trip.
The trip was led by faculty advisors Mark Wm Cawman, DBA, chair of the Department of Management and Entrepreneurship, and Ismael Lopez Medel, PhD, chair of the Department of Digital and Strategic Marketing.
The trip was filled with plenty of sightseeing in some of Europe’s most beautiful places, and was highlighted by classes where students got to apply their learning through visits to several international agencies and top companies. The trip served as inspiration for students as they prepare for their careers after graduation.
