In the 1940s, the school expanded its undergraduate offerings to include majors in accounting, commerce, finance, and political science. The school grew to almost 2,000 students. In 1948, its full-time MBA program began, and in 1957, it was accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).

In 1973, the school established an executive MBA program. In 1979, the school added a health care specialization to its Executive MBA offerings with what is now the Executive MBA in Health Management and Policy program.
