The Frank G. Zarb School of Business offers combined B.B.A./M.B.A. programs.
Qualified Zarb School of Business undergraduate students may choose to take any combination of B.B.A. and M.B.A. majors. B.B.A. students must apply for admission into the M.B.A. program after completing a minimum of 88 undergraduate credits, but prior to enrolling in their last 12 credits of course work toward the B.B.A. They are required to take the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT), meet all M.B.A. admission requirements, and be conditionally accepted into the graduate program before being eligible to take up to two graduate-level courses (six credits) as part of the undergraduate program. Students take these graduate-level courses in the School of Business in place of two undergraduate-level electives (either in the undergraduate major or outside that major) under departmental advisement of their major in the B.B.A. and in the intended M.B.A. These courses are credited to both the B.B.A. and M.B.A. Students must complete the B.B.A. degree before being permitted to take more than six graduate credits.
Advanced Certificate in Business Programs
Offered by the Zarb School of Business, these advanced graduate certificates in business programs enable individuals who already possess graduate degrees in business to either refocus their careers or update and expand upon specific business skill sets. Individuals who possess professional degrees in other areas, e.g., medicine or law, may also find these programs of interest as an expedient means of achieving expertise in a particular business function. All courses are taught by Zarb School of Business faculty. Each of the following programs consists of six graduate-level courses for a total of 18 credits (exclusive of prerequisites in some programs); at least 12 credits must be taken in residence:
- Accounting
- Taxation
Objectives of the Advanced Certificate Program
The Advanced Graduate Certificate programs enable qualified individuals holding an M.B.A. degree or other professional graduate degrees to specialize in a business area within the M.B.A. program and, thus, offer career-switching opportunities.
