A part-time student taking two classes per term and one class each Summer can complete the graduate degree program in about two years. With careful scheduling, a full-time student should be able to complete the graduate program in about one year. Students lacking an academic foundation in Business should be able to complete the pre-master's Foundation program in one year prior to starting their degree program.
