Evening MBA

Department of Business AdministrationAny person who works in Fairfield may attend our MBA program on evenings and weekends and complete the program in two and a half years. However, this evening-weekend program is also open to applicants who would like to work for the University as a way to pay for their degree. That internship option is open only to participants who have already taken advanced training in the Transcendental Meditation TM-Sidhi program.

Program structure

• Classes are held on two evenings and Saturday afternoons each week, for 9 to 13 units of academic credit per semester
• Degree requirements can be completed in approximately 3 years (five semesters and two summers)
• Each semester includes a foundational subject and an advanced course in Sustainable Business
• The program structure is the same as the Online MBA, so if you need to leave campus, you can continue your MBA studies online.

Evening-Weekend MBA - MUM Internship Option
The MBA Work-Study Internship program offers an opportunity for students to earn their MBA degree while working in an internship position at Maharishi University of Management.
