MASTER OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION (MBA)

Earn your MBA. Your Way.

The University of Akron College of Business is one of the highest ranked and most affordable MBA programs in Northeast Ohio. It is designed with you in mind. Classes are taught in two eight-week sessions each semester, which can allow working professionals the opportunity to take two classes per semester while only having to focus on one class at a time. Choose your time frame, as little as one year full-time or up to six years if part-time better fits your needs.

UA's MBA is designed with interdisciplinary skills and a strategic approach to ensure that our graduates are ready to elevate their careers and lead any organization. As a University of Akron Business student, you will also get to take advantage of our extensive network of alumni and corporate partners, professional development opportunities and career services staff dedicated to College of Business students.

Our MBA is offered in both 100% Online and Evening formats, by the same College of Business faculty regardless of which format you choose. Both Evening and Online options:

• Courses taught in two 8-week sessions per semester (5 weeks during the summer semester)
• Finish in as little as 12 months or take up to 6 years to complete the program, based on your needs
• Regardless of which option you choose, you earn the same degree taught by the same expert faculty

The MBA program at Akron is very robust. I took a lot of what I learned back to my job in corporate finance at Smucker, especially in terms of critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
