Graduate assistantships provide students the opportunity to work closely with faculty on research and teaching projects. In recent years about 25 such assistantships have been available. Approximately one quarter of the MBA students are from outside the United States. Internationalizing the curriculum is one of the college's highest priorities. In recent years faculty have worked in Russia, Spain, Taiwan, India, and the Netherlands.
International business plays a role in most courses and is the subject of one core course.
If you use the distance learning option you will find yourself part of a learning community that extends across the state. Distance learning students are bound together by shared interest and work. Typically, a class of distance learning students meets once a week for three hours. Significant reading and work assignments are required during the week. Between weekly classes, instructors often exchange work with students using electronic mail or computer file transfers.
