COHORT CONCEPT PROGRAM
The cohort structure provides students with a guaranteed schedule of the entire program from beginning to end. Students in the program will start and finish the required courses as a group. Upon completion of the core courses, they have the option to pursue the finance and operations management concentrations offered in the cohort format or may pursue any other concentration of interest offered by the Kellstadt Graduate School of Business outside of the cohort format. Please note that there will be limited weekend course offerings outside of the cohort format.
CLASS MEETING FORMAT
The Weekend MBA Program will meet on alternate Saturdays, beginning at 8:00 a.m. and ending at 5:00 p.m. Lectures are enhanced with online learning techniques to support continuous learning on the weekends when classes do not meet. For those who select the concentrations offered within the cohort format, the courses are arranged in a lock-step format from term-to-term to ensure program completion in 24 months.
