Q. How is an M.A. in management different than an M.B.A.?

A. With an M.B.A. an area of concentration, i.e. accounting, finance, marketing, etc. needs to be declared; the M.A. in management does not require an area of concentration. It also approaches the study of management from the perspective of the general manager and gives the student a well-rounded business management education.

Q. What does "involvement in study group teams" really mean?

A. Each student is placed on a study group team at the beginning of the program. The team members work together throughout the program on all classes. There are both team and individual projects assigned during the program. This concept helps the team members to help each other in areas where they may have a level of expertise, and to get assistance in areas where they need some help.
