The MBA Program Structure
Higher level managers need critical thinking, analytical skills, and decision-making ability related to:
- adapting the organization to the external environment;
- managing the internal operations;
- remaining financially viable, i.e., managing the money;
- organizing the system so that it can do these things well;
- getting more than a collection of parts; integrating into a coherent whole.
The sequence of the MBA core courses aims at developing these points.

"Small, seminar style classes are a great platform for exchanging ideas. Our disucssions always jazzed me up and let me see things from a different perspective." --Ruth Danner |
