Graduate Programs - MBA Program
Hands-on, Relevant, Non-traditional
The MBA program at the University of Maine emphasizes experiential, hands-on learning, teamwork, critical thinking and leadership while still delivering a core set of knowledge in the traditional business disciplines. Our MBA program produces graduates with practical business skills and a global perspective, but more importantly, produces business leaders who can think strategically and critically, who can adapt to change and foster change, who can inspire and lead, and who can create and convey a vision.
The Maine Business School is accredited by AACSB International –The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. AACSB International accreditation assures stakeholders that business schools provide high-caliber teaching of quality and current curricula and produce graduates who have achieved specified learning goals.
The Maine Business School MBA combines course work with experiential learning. The major components include a core set of classes emphasizing required business skills and knowledge as well as integrated thinking, a consulting/internship requirement, an international field experience and a set of required workshops. Students may pursue a general MBA and choose their electives from a broad array of courses, or choose instead to pursue a defined track and take a more specific set of electives in that area. Current MBA tracks include accounting, management, finance and business & sustainability.
Students may study full-time or part-time. Most courses are offered at the main campus in Orono and occasionally at the Hutchinson Center in Belfast, Maine. Students may matriculate in August, January, or the summer, although most students begin their studies during the fall semester. Most of our full-time students finish in two academic years; however in some circumstances it is possible for students to accelerate the pace.
