Partnerships across academic disciplines was also a priority for business programs under his leadership, Mr. Beldona said in the announcement.

At the graduate level, he helped to build connections between regional companies and faculty to develop high-level specialty programs in global supply-chain management, international business and global finance.
Students were required to participate in several hands-on courses each year, including business pitches, service learning, internships and competitions. Those activities were conducted in partnership with the regional business community.
Mr. Beldona was the Larry Jones Fellow of Corporate Governance at Wichita State University from 2001?2007, where he was also the Entrepreneurship Research Associate for the school?s Center for Entrepreneurship. He was an associate professor of international business at the International University of Japan from 2000?2001, and was an assistant professor of international business at Rutgers University from 1994?2000.
