The Florida A&M University (FAMU) School of Business and Industry (SBI), under the leadership of the founding dean Dr. Sybil Collins Mobley, was established in 1974 to prepare talented students from around the nation and the world to not only survive, but to thrive in a competitive global market place. Nearly four decades later, the outstanding record of SBI’s achievements is known worldwide, especially among corporate executives and recruiters who frequently visit SBI to observe and review its academic, professional development and internship programs as well as to recruit SBI students. Tom Peters, in his bestselling book, A Passion for Excellence, described SBI as “the Marine corps of business schools: pride, poise, excellence!”
The FAMU team advanced to the Final Four, surpassing 10 Universities, and ultimately won first place in the 6th annual 2025 Philip Payton Society HBCU Real Estate Case Competition held at the Dallas Real Estate Executive Council (REEC) Conference. The other three finalists were Tuskegee, Jackson State, and North Carolina A&T. All of the mixed major students are members of Club R.E.A.L., our real estate and leadership club, the first real estate club organized by an HBCU in the United States.
