MBA program
Master the business world. Our full-time master of business administration ranks in the top 10 percent for MBA programs with fewer than 50 students in U.S. News & World Report 2017’s Best Graduate School rankings. And our small size makes a big difference. You’ll work closely with your cohort over 10 months to build the communication and leadership skills that will propel your business career—and because it’s a fast program, you’ll get to work sooner.
