MBER is the official journal of the Bureau of Business and Government Research within the Dillard College of Business Administration. It was founded in 1983 and worked towards publishing original empirical and theoretical research on business-related topics like economics, finance, management, accounting, marketing, and management information systems.
After a brief hiatus in its functionality from summer 2021 to summer 2023, the journal got redesigned in Fall 2023 to become an official outlet for original undergraduate research on any business-related topic. The journal also welcomes original faculty-led research, with the first author always being an undergraduate student. The manuscript review process follows the usual double-blind peer review procedure and aims to keep the total turnaround time of three months (from the first submission to final acceptance). The journal is indexed in Cabell’s International and aspires to publish one issue every academic year, that is, during the summer months.
At the time of submission, the journal requires the original work not to be under consideration by any other journal or publication outlet. Papers published will present the points of view of the authors only and do not reflect those of the Bureau of Business and Government Research, the Dillard College of Business Administration, or Midwestern State University. The author assumes responsibility for the authenticity and accuracy of facts published in each article.
