Through the knowledge of organizational purpose and its successful strategic application, the MBA at Webster Geneva Campus teaches students the business competencies needed to develop and implement value creating ideas and solutions while building the personal skills necessary to achieve their professional aspirations.
The MBA is a 12-course sequence, delivered by a combination of research professors and practitioners who are at the forefront of their field in areas ranging from organizational behavior and behavioral finance to strategic management and leadership.
The innovative curriculum delivery method combines weekly online learning through WorldClassRoom (Canvas) with one in-person, three-hour application and discussion session for eight-week terms. Class times are adapted to the cohort of students who are currently enrolled. Common options include two weekday evenings from 6 p.m. or Saturdays from 11 a.m. with special events/networking also built into the terms. Please contact admissions to discuss your preferences.
Webster offers five eight-week terms per year (Fall 1 and Fall 2, Spring 1 and Spring 2, and one Summer term). This allows busy professionals to attend, and for those who may be seeking employment or internships to keep an open daytime schedule.
Students who have completed an ACBSP-accredited undergraduate program at Webster within the past 10 years may waive 6 credit hours of electives, reducing the number of required courses to 30 credit hours. The degree can then be completed in as little as one calendar year.
