Membership in Beta Gamma Sigma provides lifetime recognition for students of business and management in schools accredited by AACSB International. It is the highest recognition a student anywhere in the world can receive in a program accredited by AACSB International. Simply put, members elected to Beta Gamma Sigma are truly the “Best in Business."
