The College of Business and Management has heard for years from students who said they would consider pursuing a Master of Business Administration degree – if it was offered online.
“We would say, ‘One day, one day,” CBM Associate Dean Jorge Villegas said. “That day has arrived.”
In October the CBM is set to launch its online MBA program, as well as a master’s degree in Finance. In the pipeline for 2022 are online master’s degrees in Cybersecurity Management, Health Care Informatics and Human Resource Management.
