M.B.A. Concentrations

Master of Business Administration (M.B.A.)

The M.B.A. program at the Anderson School is based upon a strong core curriculum which is both challenging and continuously evolving to keep pace with the issues facing today’s managers. Students with degrees in any discipline may apply for admission to the M.B.A. program. The M.B.A. program is a 48 hour program with two degree tracks: (1) an M.B.A. with no concentration consisting of 30 hours of core plus 18 hours of general management electives, or (2) an M.B.A. with a concentration consisting of 30 hours of core, 15 hours of concentration requirements, plus 3 hours of general management electives to total 48 hours. Some concentrations require more than 15 hours. Concentrations that are currently offered are listed under M.B.A. Concentrations.

The Executive M.B.A. Weekend Program

(http://emba.mgt.unm.edu)
The Executive M.B.A. program (E.M.B.A.) is an intensive, two-year course of study designed specifically for experienced business professionals who wish to enhance their managerial acumen, accelerate their career progression or pursue new opportunities. Because classes meet every other weekend, executives, professionals, middle managers and entrepreneurs are able to earn their master’s degree without interrupting their careers. Classes are held every other weekend on Fridays from 1:00-6:00pm and Saturdays from 8:00am-1:00pm. Classes meet on the University of New Mexico’s main campus.

Participants, whose average age is 37, complete a lock-step curriculum consisting of 48 credit hours, with an emphasis on strategic management within the global economy. The curriculum is updated on a regular basis to reflect current business practices and is therefore subject to change. Faculty are drawn from the senior ranks of the Anderson School and are selected for their ability to challenge adult students and to facilitate the exchange of ideas and interaction in the classroom. A variety of teaching formats are used including the case method, group projects and peer learning through formal study teams. E.M.B.A. classes are limited to E.M.B.A. program participants.

The E.M.B.A. program sets its own all-inclusive fee each year to include tuition, books, parking, refreshments and complete administrative support. Payments are prorated over the (7) seven semesters of the program; student loans are available. The only additional cost is for participation in the optional, 10-day residency abroad.

The E.M.B.A. program starts once each year in late June with a mandatory, two-day orientation. Applications are accepted year-round on a rolling admissions process. Candidates must have at least five years of significant work experience (managerial, supervisory, budgetary or project management) and hold an undergraduate degree in any field.

For consideration, applicants must submit the following: E.M.B.A. application form and fee, current resume, statement of purpose, official copies of all transcripts, official GMAT/GRE score (taken within the last five years) and three letters of recommendation, including one from the sponsoring organization. Once all of these items have been received, an interview with the program director is scheduled prior to final review by the Anderson School’s selection committee. The best consideration deadline for the E.M.B.A. program is April 1. The early admission deadline is January 15.
