Master of Business Administration (MBA) Overview
What makes our MBA program an excellent choice?
More people are earning master’s degrees than ever before. And each one of them will be competing for jobs against a wide range of applicants, some with advanced degrees, and some without. While an advanced degree is no guarantee of success, it can provide a competitive edge and higher salary.
