Monmouth University - Beta Gamma Sigma

Beta Gamma Sigma

The International Honor Society Beta Gamma Sigma recognizes the outstanding academic achievements of students enrolled in collegiate business and management programs accredited by AACSB International–The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. Membership is by invitation only. Students are normally invited for membership if they are in the top 10% as undergraduates, or in the top 20% as graduate students.

With the global expansion of accreditation by AACSB International, Beta Gamma Sigma is able to extend invitations to outstanding students worldwide. Membership in the society is the highest recognition a business student anywhere in the world can receive in a baccalaureate, post-baccalaureate, or doctoral program in business.

There is no higher honor for students of business and management than to graduate “Beta Gamma Sigma.”
