Programs The Master of Business Administration (MBA) program prepares professionals with the skills necessary to solve the critical problems of today's organizations. Our 30-hour MBA consists of ten courses-eight core classes and two electives. You can also choose an additional elective to earn a concentration in entrepreneurship, finance, or operations management. The Graduate Certificate in Business Essentials is designed for professionals who hold undergraduate degrees in non-business areas such as architecture, engineering, science, nursing, journalism, or education. Our graduate certificate program provides a solid understanding of business that may be just what you need to advance in your field. In as few as four courses, you will gain valuable knowledge in accounting, economics, finance, marketing, management, organizational behavior, or operations management. Why Ball State? Flexibility. Being named the number one wireless campus in the country by Intel Corporation, you can live and work virtually anywhere while completing our programs. Nearly 60 percent of our students take courses via live, interactive, Internet-based video streaming while they maintain full-time professional employment. Small on-campus classes are also available for those seeking a more traditional graduate school experience. All of our courses are offered one night per week during regular fall, spring, and summer semesters. Global Perspectives. By preparing students for the increasingly global nature of business, with international learning in virtually every core course, you'll come away prepared to enter the world of business several steps ahead of your peers, or if you're already in the workforce, you'll emerge ready to climb higher on the corporate ladder.
