The Mesa State College MBA is a challenging program designed to prepare graduates for the changing business world. The degree is awarded after successful completion of 36 semester hours of rigorous study (a 24 hour core and a 12 hour general elective requirement).
The program is designed to provide the student with a broad background in business while allowing the student to focus in an area of study, if desired. Core requirements include coursework in management, finance, marketing, law and ethics, organizational theory and behavior, and accounting and a capstone course in policy and strategy. Electives include such courses as global business, entrepreneurship, managerial economics and management information systems.
Each graduate program requires work experience (the professional track) or a directed research project (the thesis track). Students selecting the professional track will have the opportunity to complete an internship. Students selecting the thesis track must complete, under faculty supervision, an original research paper and prepare an oral presentation of the thesis. |
