Administrative history

Initial attempts to establish a commerce undergraduate degree program began in 1916, with the impetus coming from the Vancouver Board of Trade. Shortage of funds temporarily delayed the implementation of the suggested program, but continued interest resulted in the introduction of five courses in 1929. In September 1939, Ellis Morrow became head of a separate Department of Commerce within the Faculty of Arts and Science. Under Morrow's direction, the department grew, and in 1950, its status was changed to a school under the leadership of Earle D. MacPhee. Six years later, the Senate and Board of Governors approved the Faculty of Commerce and Business Administration establishment, with Dr. MacPhee as Dean. UBC started helping establish overseas business schools in 1958, beginning in Malaysia, founded in 1961, and Singapore, founded in 1962. A partnership with Antai College of Economics and Management at Shanghai's Jiao Tong University was established in 2001. The faculty's name was changed to Sauder School of Business in 2003 after the most significant single private donation to a business school in Canada by William L. Sauder.
