Program Overview

The mission of the One-Year MBA program is to provide the best graduate education for business students in the region, by focusing on knowledge acquisition, systematic applied learning, and professional development.

MBA students build skills to support their career goals. Students work with fellow peers from diverse backgrounds, within a cohort structure, to gain a fresh perspective on local, national, and international issues. Learning to be a better leader and a more effective teammate are some of the many skills students learn in and outside the classroom.

Designed to be completed in one year, the 42-credit hour curriculum provides students with holistic business knowledge through rigorous core classes, professional development seminars, on-site company tours and networking, an intensive consulting capstone seminar, and an international immersion experience.
