| The Full-Time (Cohort) MBA degree plan is an accelerated program that consists of 53 credit hours which includes 29 core credits and 24 elective credits. Students follow a lock-step progression through the program, starting in the fall and graduating 16 months later. Students take core classes during the daytime – together from Monday through Thursday. |

| The program consists of courses in the functional areas of business such as accounting, finance, marketing, and strategy. In addition professional development courses and activities are offered including communications skills for leaders, career management, building team effectiveness, and business execution. Each student works with an executive coach to enhance skills and career prospects. |
| Part-time program |
| Students earn the MBA degree by completing a 53-hour program consisting of 29 hours of core courses and 24 hours of elective courses. We recommend that students develop a concentration which could be based on one of the functional business disciplines or cross-disciplinary such as entrepreneurship, health care, and leadership. Approximately 100 elective courses are offered each academic year. |
