Part-Time MBA
The NC State MBA Program has a strong commitment to providing exceptional management education to working professionals. We offer an AACSB International-accredited, flexible evening program that features an award-winning faculty, innovative curriculum, and affordable tuition.
NC State’s MBA is a specialized degree emphasizing innovation and technology management. Our program allows students to develop expertise in managing the development of new products, production methods and processes, and the creation of new ideas.
A REPUTATION FOR EXCELLENCE
Our competitive admissions process and restricted class size ensure that students have the opportunity to interact with faculty and exchange ideas with other outstanding business students. Working in teams with other area professionals, students explore a variety of business issues and acquire the skills essential to being a successful leader in a rapidly changing global business climate.
In addition to completing core courses in the basics of management, students select electives and specialized concentrations including biotechnology-pharmaceuticals management, technology entrepreneurship & commercialization, information technology management, marketing management, production innovation management, supply chain management, and financial management.
A PROGRAM DESIGNED FOR PROFESSIONALS
The evening program is designed so that students can complete all coursework in three years. All courses are offered on weekdays from either 6:00 p.m. to 8:50 p.m. or 6:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., depending on the credit hours, and meet once per week. Classes are held in Nelson Hall on the NC State campus in Raleigh and on our campus in Research Triangle Park. Part-time students generally travel to campus only two nights a week for class. Professors are accessible before & after class, during breaks, and by email & phone.
OPPORTUNITIES FOR PROFESSIONAL GROWTH
The knowledge and skills you will acquire as a part-time student can have an immediate impact on your own work and open new doors for career advancement. Many part-time students receive promotions from their employers and accept new challenges with their organizations.
For students looking to make a career or company change, assistance is available. Unlike most MBA programs, we do not restrict part-time students from using our career services resources. Our part-time students have complete access to our Career Resources Center for their job search and employment counseling needs.
