Curriculum
Every student will work with the MBA Director or assigned advisor to develop a study plan. This is to ensure that students are able to complete their program in a timely manner.
The foundation requirements should be completed in order to continue the program beyond the first year. Credit may be given for these requirements based on prior academic credit, completion of programs with similar content, or experience. Courses will be taught periodically which satisfy these requirements. Credits earned below the 510 level are not part of the 36 credit hours required for program completion. Participants may simultaneously complete their final foundation requirements and begin to take core courses as long as prerequisite requirements for core courses are met. Foundation courses range from MBA 501 to 507.
For planning purposes, the schedule of Core Courses is being provided below based upon location.
