Two-Year MBA
Our Two-Year MBA Program gives students the flexibility to explore a range of disciplines while developing management and leadership skills along the way.
Students graduating from the Two-Year Program were able to make career pivots into different industries, or even start their own ventures. We saw students pivot from management consulting to highly sought-after roles in tech and healthcare, and increased interest in professionals seeking finance roles in investment banking and private equity. Examples of roles accepted by our Two-Year MBA graduates include business program manager at Microsoft, associate at McKinsey & Company and assistant vice president of Impact Measurement at US Bank.
