What Makes Our School Unique

The University of Alabama is one of the few programs in the world that is available to the less experienced student.  We take a specialized approach that requires incredible resources and an infrastructure which allows our faculty to work very closely with our students and corporate partners for building a skill set for this targeted audience.  Our average years of work experience is two years.  Our top Corporate recruiters site UA's MBA program as having "rising stars" with a work ethic second to none.  

Students most appreciate the unusually close relationship that they have with the professor and the "high touch" manner in which we run this unique program.  Our alums are also very involved in our program and considering that according to a Forbes survey of the top 500 Fortune 500 CEO's, that asked "where did you attend school?," UA ranks # 8 among this elite group.  Our students have numerous opportunities to interact with this group through integrated cases, guest lectures, and social activities.
