About Beta Gamma Sigma

Since its founding in 1913, the International Honor Society Beta Gamma Sigma has recognized the outstanding academic achievements of collegiate business and management scholars.

Lifetime membership is the highest recognition business scholars can receive internationally at a business program accredited by AACSB International. Only the top scholars of these programs are invited to join Beta Gamma Sigma. Beta Gamma Sigma is not a fraternity, sorority or student club. It is an organization that recognizes academic excellence in business studies.

Beta Gamma Sigma has established more than 525 collegiate chapters in over 20 countries and territories worldwide, and has inducted more than 725,000 outstanding scholars into membership. Members currently reside in all 50 U.S. states and more than 160 countries and serve in corporate, government, non-profit, educational and other management positions at every level of responsibility.

The "Best in Business"

BGS lifetime members are considered the “best of the best” in business. As the highest honor attainable at an AACSB accredited school of business, Beta Gamma Sigma membership is not only a symbol of high achievement, but also a beacon of things to come. The best predictor of future success is past achievement, and membership in BGS is a great way to show potential employers you have what it takes to perform at the highest levels.
