Abstract
Several theoretical perspectives and related empirical research have potential relevance for the study of curriculum review at Columbia Business School. Regarding the focus of the first section, long-term organizational evolution, two approaches are discussed and working hypotheses developed for each. In the second section, several models of organizational decision making are presented in abbreviated form, and their potential applicability to curriculum review at Columbia Business School is discussed. In the final section, the literature on curriculum is briefly reviewed for potential insight into curriculum change at business schools in general and Columbia Business School in particular.
