Designed as a part-time program to meet the needs of the working adult learner, most of the courses will meet through a combination of online and face-to-face instruction. Students will take one course at a time for the duration of the program. The program provides the support and motivation of a cohesive team with a shared set of goals. Students will be strongly connected to the program, to faculty, and to their fellow participants.
The application process to the MBA program is holistic and takes experience and professional aspirations into consideration equally. Our students come from a variety of different fields and settings, which enriches and builds upon individual goals for the program. Students work with faculty members to decide which choices are relevant to them, and what outcomes they are hoping to achieve.
