Two-Year MBA Program

Boston University’s full-time MBA offers an opportunity for you to immerse yourself in School of Management and MBA student life, and to hone and expand your current skill set.

It’s a chance to stretch yourself, to choose classes in subjects you have never taken before (including courses offered outside the School of Management). Learn from the experts; study with professors who are outstanding teachers and highly respected in their field. Choose the electives that will help differentiate you from the competition.

Cohorts: Your Community on Campus

The full-time MBA program is a two-year interactive learning experience addressing the dynamics of global business. In the first year, you’ll be assigned to a cohort: a group of 50-55 students who take core courses together. You’ll work together on assignments and projects, often coordinated between courses.

The Benefits of the Cohort

• You will form close professional and personal bonds with your cohort colleagues, prompting more productive teaming, better learning and study practice, and more engaging class discussions.
• Cohorts help the faculty, too. Professors can easily share input about each cohort’s previous and current classroom experience, enabling coordinated assignments and cross-functional class work.

The Integrated Project

Full-time MBA students spend their first semester working on the Integrated Project, which tasksteams with applying the lessons learned from across their statistics, marketing, finance, accounting and organizational behavior classes, in order to increase the value of a brand in the marketplace.

MBA Summer Internship

The MBA summer internship helps you develop connections and expertise that are crucial for your career search. Many internships result in full-time job offers upon graduation. The School’s unique Career Management course, required of all first-year students, supports you in the process of finding an internship.
