Accelerated One Year MBA

Teamwork is a central focus of Clarkson’s One-Year AACSB accredited MBA program. We emphasize the development of effective communication skills, including oral, written and multimedia methods. The core courses use cases, behavioral role playing, and simulation gaming as teaching methods. Several hands-on projects, consulting projects, and global business program opportunities provide application of theory to real business situations. Applications are being accepted for the Fall 2014 semester. If you are looking for a chance to take your business skills to the next level, submit your application today. Scholarships are available to qualified individuals. Not from a business background, or lacking required prerequisites? You can participate in our Summer Business Concepts Program and complete all of the required prerequisites the summer before beginning the MBA program, and the best part is, all 10 courses are ABSOLUTELY FREE!
