The 12 month program begins in June with an intensive series of classes that precedes the beginning of the fall semester. In the summer session, students develop essential skills in statistics, managerial economics and decision-making analysis. Students move through the fall and spring semesters as a cohort. Skills courses in both semesters develop advanced capabilities in finance, communication, organizational behavior and marketing analysis.  During the spring semester, courses emphasize technology applications, entrepreneurship, global business and capstone class emphasizing strategy integration.
