The MBA program highlights the acquisition
of technical management skills within a peer group or management
team context. Written problem analysis is required throughout
the program, as is the development of presentation skills.
The MBA program focuses on skill development in the areas
of strategic management, analytic tools, managerial economics
and managerial accounting, international business, and marketing
management.
The MBA degree program challenges the adult
learner to develop knowledge, skills and personal values
through a well-planned, sequenced curriculum. This curriculum
integrates increasingly advanced cognitive skills, awareness
of self and of others, individual creativity, respect for
the liberal arts, ethical practices and technology as life-long
learning tools.
The instructors in the MBA courses provide
extensive real world education for real world application.
Our instructors focus on providing theory coupled with practical
applications that students can put to use immediately.
Instructional methods include lectures, seminars,
workshop activities, simulations and business case studies.
Each class forms study groups to assist in the learning
process.
- The MBA program operates on the learning team model.
All students in the learning team start the program at
the same time. All students take each course in the curriculum
in sequence; this eliminates the need for students to
scramble for required courses. Most of the courses are
completed in six weeks with class meetings one night per
week for four hours.
