UA's Eller College Takes Accelerated MBA to Phoenix
The 18-month Eller Evening MBA program at Eller College's new Scottsdale campus launches in January '08.
A New Option for Advanced Education in Phoenix
Professionals looking for an edge in today’s increasingly dynamic global economy now have another option for advanced education in Phoenix. The University of Arizona’s Eller College of Management will offer an accelerated Evening MBA program at its new Scottsdale campus beginning January 10, 2008.
Building on Success
Building on the success of its 14-month Executive MBA program launched in 2006, the Eller College’s Evening MBA is a fast-paced, convenient yet comprehensive program for working professionals. Students attend class one evening per week for 18 months, including three residential sessions which range from three to five days each. The accelerated program is possible due to the integrated curriculum and course lengths that vary based on the needs of the market and the complexity of material.
“Students will engage in real-world, hands-on learning every Wednesday evening that they can apply immediately when they return to the office on Thursday,” explained Brent Chrite, associate dean and director of Eller MBA programs. “We scrapped the traditional semester-long course design in favor of a blended business learning model in which courses are condensed — anywhere from one to 12 weeks — based on the academic material under study. For example, the introductory course on leadership and social responsibility is completed in four days during the first residential session; the statistical decision making course unfolds over eight weeks in order to maximize transfer and impact.”
