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

The MBA core courses build on and complement each other.  It is therefore required that students take the core courses in the proper sequence within a ten-month time frame.  Students also begin their elective courses in the Fall semester concurrent with their core classes.  Any exception requires special permission from the Director of the MBA program.
