Full-time MBA Curriculum

Our new and innovative curriculum was designed specifically to accelerate your progress through this highly-ranked AACSB-accredited MBA program. We do this by integrating courses, identifying key skills and concepts necessary for success in business, and then helping you to master these skills and concepts through class discussions, cases, guest lectures, and projects.

Throughout the program, you will be exposed to the knowledge that builds insight into complex organizations. Core courses, indicated as green in the table below, will focus on the functional areas of business, how they interact, how they contribute to the goals and objectives of the organization, and how they can be managed effectively. You will learn the behavioral and social skills that empower effective leaders in any organization, as well as the technical skills necessary to understand complex business processes, manage the development of technology projects, and utilize data for effective decision making.

Core courses and electives build an understanding of the business environment, and the Corporate Round Table (CRT) provides a first-rate opportunity to apply this knowledge to the real world of business. The class works closely with major companies such as Fidelity Investments and Liberty Mutual Life Insurance; the class is divided into small teams and each team is assigned a real-life problem. Teams work closely with the host company and faculty advisors. At the end of the projects, the class makes presentations to company sponsors.
