The Journal of Education for Business is for those educating tomorrow's businesspeople. The journal primarily features basic and applied research-based articles in entrepreneurship, accounting, communications, economics, finance, information systems, management, marketing, and other business disciplines. Along with the focus on reporting research within traditional business subjects, an additional expanded area of interest is publishing articles within the discipline of entrepreneurship. Articles report successful innovations in teaching and curriculum development at the college and postgraduate levels. Authors address changes in today's business world and in the business professions that are fundamentally influencing the competencies that business graduates need. JEB also offers a forum for new theories and for analyses of controversial issues. Articles in the Journal fall into the following categories: Original and Applied Research; Editorial/Professional Perspectives; and Innovative Instructional Classroom Projects/Best Practices. Articles are selected on a anonymized peer-reviewed basis.

Original and Applied Research - Articles published feature the results of formal research where findings have universal impact. Such articles generally contain a significant literature review, statement of hypotheses and significance of the problem, research methodology, findings, conclusions, and recommendations for further research. Manuscripts in this segment should not exceed 4500 words.

Editorial/Professional Perspective - Articles published feature the viewpoint of primarily the author regarding important issues affecting education for business. Examples of topics published are outsourcing, globalization, discrimination, ethics and diversity, among others. Issues examined are expected to be thoroughly researched and include a clearly delineated proposal or resolution. The structure for submission should include an overview of the issue being addressed; historical perspective on the issue; current workplace examples regarding the issue; and potential outcomes or models to resolve the issue being discussed. Manuscripts submitted within this category should not exceed 2500 words.

Innovative Instructional Classroom Projects/Best Practices - Articles published feature the results of instructional experiments basically derived from a classroom project conducted at one institution by one or several faculty. Classroom instructional experiments that reflect innovative approaches or practices to business education and are conducted in either traditional and non-traditional settings, thus enhancing our knowledge for providing effective instructional alternatives, are the focus here. The structure for submission should reflect an introduction, a foundation for understanding the significance behind the instructional experiment, a description of the procedures or steps followed, the reporting of the findings, and a listing of specific conclusions. Manuscripts submitted should not exceed 4500 words.
