Advantages of a Part-Time MBA Program

When it comes to earning your MBA, a part-time MBA program could be a great solution to balancing school with your schedule. Here are just a few potential benefits that might make a part-time MBA program the right decision for furthering your education:

Potential to Work and Pursue Education Simultaneously

As a  part-time MBA student, you may be able to balance your MBA coursework with your daily work schedule better than if you were to commit to a full-time program.

Convenience of Completing Your Degree Entirely Online

While this can apply to full-time programs as well, having the option to complete your part-time MBA program entirely online can give you even greater flexibility when managing a busy schedule.

Apply Your New Career Skills as They Develop

Your education and work experience inform how you might apply new skills on the job. When enrolled in a part-time MBA program while working, you can put your newly-acquired skills to work right away.

Set Your Own Pace

For many MBA students, putting life on hold during grad school is not an option. A part-time MBA program may allow you to pace yourself, making the cost of tuition and course materials more manageable  while maintaining life’s ongoing commitments. 

Equivalent to a Full-Time MBA

If you choose a part-time MBA program, your journey may take a bit longer to complete, but the destination – and the degree – are the same.

How Long Does It Take to Finish a Part-Time MBA Program?

There are many factors that can influence how long it takes you to complete your part-time MBA program, such as:

  • How many courses you take per session.

  • If you take any breaks or sessions off as you’re pursuing your degree.

  • If you have any qualifying transfer credits from previous institutions.

  • The length of the program in which you are enrolled.

To gain a better understanding of how your personal circumstances might affect the length of your degree program, we recommend speaking to an Admissions Representative.

What Subjects are Covered in an MBA Program?

Because an MBA is aimed at helping you prepare to pursue managerial or other high-level business positions, the coursework covers a wide range of topics that not only help develop your business acumen but sharpen your leadership and people management skills. Here are a few of the subjects you might explore during a part-time MBA program:
