Program Flexibility
We are aware that acquiring an MBA degree requires a major commitment of
time and effort on the student's part. Given the great value attached to the
MBA degree hard work is to be expected. The MBA degree requires the
completion of at least 30 hours of graduate-level coursework for students with
undergraduate business degrees. Part-time students with undergraduate
business degrees can expect to complete the program within three years.
Full-time students may complete the program within two years.
USI's MBA program is specifically designed to meet the unique needs of
the working professional. To meet the needs of our students USI provides:
-
Convenient evening classes for the working professional; classes start
at 6:00 PM.
-
Prerequisites courses for non-business undergraduate majors.
-
A summer course schedule to help expedite progress through the
program.
-
Flexible advising and administrative assistance.
Class Attendance
Students enrolled in course work are expected to attend all scheduled
classes. In an evening program with students typically employed full time,
often in managerial positions, unavoidable business-imposed absences will
occur. Students should inform professors of the nature of such absences at
the earliest practical opportunity, preferably in advance. Students are
responsible for coordination with professors to insure that any additional
requirements resulting from missed classes is understood. Students are
responsible for all information and assignments of missed classes.
In cases where absences reach a frequency that, in the professor's
opinion, make it unlikely that the student can realistically expect
successful completion of the course withdrawal from class should be
recommended.
