Coursework and activities in the Fast Track MBA follow a modular format designed, in broad terms, to mirror the cycle of business development. Respectively, the core curriculum focuses on:
- recognizing and assessing an opportunity
- formulating a business strategy
- implementing the business strategy
- modifying that strategy and systems as conditions evolve and change
The content of each portion of the curriculum reflects the real-world challenges and opportunities facing managers today and will draw heavily on students' own work-life experiences.
Program Logistics
