Our full-time, 1-MBA program offers a concentration in Financial Management
An interdisciplinary approach between the Finance and Management departments in the College of Business, this concentration lives at the intersection of finance and management and equips MBA students with a strong background in corporate finance while also integrating new venture analysis in how organizations enhance their capabilities to organize, execute, and invest in new ventures. What makes this concentration unique is that few Finance concentrations allow students to access the mindset of an entrepreneur. Through a blend of Graduate Business Entrepreneurship (GBEN) and Graduate Business (GBUS) courses this concentration is ideal for students who:
- Are seeking or advancing in a career in finance
- Are interested in working for start ups or fast growing companies in a finance capacity
- Have an interest in developing their own entrepreneurial ideas and seek to gain deeper financial acumen
The 1-MBA with Financial Management Concentration is a 13-month program from July to August.
