The first year of the MBA program is designed to provide students with a strong base of knowledge for advanced business studies. The core is delivered through an integrated series of concentrated courses plus course work in statistics and economics. Following the first two semesters of core classes, students are encouraged to participate in a summer experiential learning, or internship, activity.
Students can also use the summer months to complete elective coursework.
The second year provides students with the opportunity to tailor their program to meet unique career goals and aspirations. MBA students select elective coursework to choose an area of specialization or follow a general management program of study. 2001, Iowa State University. All rights reserved.
