The University of Rhode Island's Providence Evening MBA Program prepares you for careers as effective leaders and managers. The program is designed to emphasize conceptual, analytical, technical, and interpersonal skills. Material for this non-thesis program is presented through lectures, discussions, case studies, and both individual and group projects. The MBA program does not require previous instruction in business administration.
Starting in Fall 2006, you will see some changes to the curriculum. The program now consists of 15 courses (36 to 45 credits, depending upon your undergraduate major). Included in the 45 credits are 9 credit hours of electives that enable you to specialize in a particular area of study
