Courses and Curriculum

UMS's online MBA provides the flexibility to customize your program with courses that focus on specific subjects of interest. You can choose to take either elective courses or a concentration to complete your 12-course program.

Conceived to address the demands of an increasingly global business environment, UMS's online MBA explores such themes as ethics, communication and social responsibility. It also gives you the chance to interact with a diverse student body, one of the many fringe benefits of the online classroom. In the process, you’ll enhance your “soft skills,” a key ingredient for success in any aspect of the business world.

  • At the beginning of the program students are able to select real-world projects from their own professional or personal experiences.
  • This way, students can tailor the program around their interests thus being able to acquire the specific knowledge base and skill sets needed to achieve their personal career aspirations.
  • The courses build upon each other so students can craft a business plan throughout the program.
  • At the end of the program the graduates walk away with the complete business plan for an idea they can present to investors, employers or prospective companies.

Whether you're looking to enhance your current career, improve your ability to switch careers or ensure the success of your own business, our business degree coursework offers you the flexibility to tailor your program around your core skills and interests through more than 20 career-oriented concentrations.

Those with non-business academic backgrounds may be required to take foundation courses. Students requiring foundation courses often choose the elective option, because it provides the added flexibility of using some foundation courses to fulfill elective requirements.
