Master of Business Administration (M.B.A.)

This M.B.A. program contains 13 courses and is offered at selected locations convenient to working adults. Students meet in cohort groups which remain together for the ten core courses of the program. Cohort groups may temporarily split up to enable students to take three specialized courses in our general management, finance or marketing concentrations. You’ll work on a team, devising strategies, contributing your own viewpoints and bringing your team’s objectives together to achieve a goal. In the process, you’ll develop your business instincts and build valuable skills, both quantitative (such as analyzing a financial statement) and qualitative (as in project team management).

Our MBA program is offered in three innovative formats: in-class (Web enhanced), online and hybrid. Students progress through the program with a cohort of 15 to 20 diverse students who reflect teams you may encounter on the job. Courses meet just once a week in the in-class format, in which face-to-face coursework is supported by participation in a Web-based classroom site that can be accessed anytime, anywhere. Instruction in the online format is conducted via our Web-based learning platform. Online courses are much like classroom courses, with definite objectives tied to specific course content. Cutting edge tools such as streaming media and strategic management simulations will enhance your learning. Our hybrid format provides innovative combinations of our in-class and the online formats.
