CLASS SCHEDULE

Students are admitted into the MBA + during fall quarter only.

The coursework within the MBA + program can be grouped into four segments: foundation skills, business disciplines, integration, and specialization/electives (view Curriculum ).  

The MBA + program allows students to focus their degree in a wide array of topics, thanks to the range of coursework both inside the business school and available through other departments in the University. Students are required to take 16 of their 72 required credits as electives. Students may wish to concentrate their electives in a certain area of study (view Concentrations ).

Full-time schedule (proposed)

Core classes in the full-time program are taught Mondays through Thursdays from 10:00 am until 4:00 pm. Most electives are offered in the evening.

Part-time schedule (proposed)

Classes in the part-time program are taught Mondays and Wednesdays from 5:40 pm until 9:20 pm. Electives may be offered on different days of the week.

Concentrations/Electives (16 credits)

Each student will select elective coursework to complete the MBA + program. A maximum of 8 credits of electives may be 400/500 level coursework taken for graduate credit. Electives will be selected from courses offered by the School of Business Administration or may, with pre-approval of the director of graduate programs, be selected from areas outside business administration. Electives are an opportunity to develop an area of concentration within the MBA + program.  The majority of electives are offered during the evening on the main campus and some are available online.

Waivers

Students may be eligible for waiver of some required courses in the MBA + program. A waiver is based upon the student holding an undergraduate major in the specific business discipline for which the waiver is sought, or a waiver exam. Specifically, ACTG 511,ACTG 512, FIN 514, FIN 561, ISQA 511, ISQA 551, ISQA 552, BA 561 or MGMT 550 may be considered for waiver. A student can waive a maximum of 12 credit hours from the courses listed above only, thus reducing the required number of hours in the degree program to 60 credit hours.
