The Graduate Program

The purpose of the M.B.A degree is to offer a professional program preparing graduate students from diverse backgrounds for rewarding careers in organizations. The core area of business studies is broad in scope for the purpose of developing general managerial competence through extensive use of the case method and selected use of other pedagogies such as simulations and research projects. Electives are used to develop special competencies of interest to the student. In the degree, the College seeks to:

Provide a high level of confidence that will allow the student to cope with uncertainty, communicate effectively, and to make decisions in an increasingly complex and global business environment.
Provide an awareness and appreciation of the legal, ethical, social, political, and economic environments of business.
Provide essential competence in administration, as well as an understanding of the administrative process.
Develop a high level of skill in problem analysis and decision making.
Provide sufficient competence for making positive contributions to one of the functional areas of a business firm through changing technology within the business context.

The College of Business is distinguished by undergraduate, graduate, and special accounting accreditation by the American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business, recognition accorded to only about 10 percent of the nation's colleges and schools of business.
