Sample Program Timeline

The first two semesters of the program consist mostly of core courses — most of which are offered on campus during regular business hours. The second half of the program is when students typically complete the majority of their electives and specialized courses, which are most often completed via online and/or evening courses; this provides full-time students an opportunity to collaborate with our Professional Online MBA students.
