The curriculum for each MBA program includes a set of program courses designed to provide a strong business foundation for all students, plus a set of specialized courses unique to each concentration. At the end of each program is a Capstone course, designed to integrate all earlier coursework. The specific course requirements for each MBA concentration are outlined on the following pages.
Students have considerable flexibility in course scheduling.
Some courses are prerequisites for others, as indicated in the Course Descriptions beginning on page 41. When prerequisites are not indicated, courses may be pursued in any sequence. Capstone courses may be taken only in a student s final trimester. Most programs require completion of 49 credit hours. This number may be reduced to a minimum of 37 hours for students who qualify to have courses waived on the basis of undergraduate business coursework or coursework transferred from another graduate institution.
