Part-Time MBA

Flexible: On campus, online or hybrid. You decide.

Weatherhead School of Management’s Part-Time MBA program offers busy working professionals convenience and flexibility as they advance their careers. Our nationally ranked MBA combines hard-skill coursework including accounting, finance, operations and business analytics, with soft-skill courses such as leadership development and organizational behavior, to prepare you for a changing business world.

Both on-campus and online courses typically meet one night per week, sometimes two, and are taught by the same faculty who teach in our full-time MBA.

You’ll create a personalized learning plan through our Leadership Assessment and Development (LEAD) course during the first semester, including identifying the pace that works best for you to complete the 48-credit-hour program, in three years or less.

Simon Peck, PhD, explains how the program was specifically designed to address the needs of today's working professionals.
