Online MBA

The University of Baltimore's Online MBA program offers the same content, rigor, and collaboration between faculty and students as you would find in our face-to-face classes.

The benefits of online education are that you can participate from anywhere with an Internet connection without needing to travel to campus.

The benefits of an Online MBA at the University of Baltimore are based in our dedication to helping working professionals earn their degree while living their lives .

We've been focused on the professionals since our founding in 1925. When we launched our Online MBA in 1999, we became the first AACSB International accredited school to pioneer a web-based MBA program that was available to students fully online — in other words, they never had to leave their homes to earn a high-quality MBA degree. And to this day, thousands of professionals have earned their degree entirely online at the University of Baltimore.

About Baltimore , Baltimore isn't nicknamed Charm City for nothing. And while there are endless reasons that it's a great place to go to school, here are what we think are the five most important ones. 1. We're close to everything. We're close to major highways and to every kind of public transportation, so getting around town is simple. Or you can just walk across the street to Penn Station and hop a train for a quick trip to Washington, D.C.; Philadelphia; New York; or other major East Coast destinations. 2. So much to do. How do you choose? Tourists routinely head for the Inner Harbor, the National Aquarium, downtown's upscale stores and eateries, but what about you? Nearly every Baltimore neighborhood has its own unique and quirky attractions. Spend an afternoon wandering around the 18th-century cobblestone streets of Fell's Point. Sample a crab cake at one of the city's historic open-air markets. Catch a popular local band or a new play in the Station North Arts and Entertainment District. Let us brag: Baltimore was named by Fodor's as one of the 15 Best Waterfront Cities in the World. 3. Baltimore is a city apart. Baltimore has more than its share of visual and performing arts. Within a close walking distance of UB, you'll find The Walters Art Museum, the Patricia and Arthur Modell Performing Arts Center at the Lyric, the Meyerhoff Symphony Hall and the Eubie Blake National Jazz Institute and Cultural Center. UB's campus is also is home to Artscape, the nation's largest free arts festival. 4. This is Birdland. From UB's nearby Light Rail stop, it's a 10-minute ride south to Baltimore's two professional sports stadiums. Catch a Baltimore Orioles baseball game in the spring or enjoy fall football with the Baltimore Ravens. 5. Baltimore is a college town. UB is just one of many public and private colleges and universities in and around metropolitan Baltimore. That "college town feel" is one of the major benefits of living in the city. Get familiar with the Baltimore Collegetown Network and learn more about the ways these campuses contribute to the charm of Charm City.
