FAQs: Online Graduate Degrees and Programs

A graduate degree is an advanced academic credential that you can pursue after you’ve earned a bachelor’s degree. Master’s degrees, including MBA degrees, can help you specialize in an area of business or prepare to pursue advanced career opportunities.

Master’s degrees are the most frequently awarded graduate degrees and typically take around 2 years to complete. Here at Keller, we offer online master’s degree programs in several specialized areas of business, accounting, finance, healthcare administration and technology. One appealing aspect of a graduate degree is that it also allows you to develop and sharpen transferable skills that can be used in nearly any area of business. These include critical thinking, research skills, time management, leadership and collaboration skills.

The benefits of a graduate degree can be many. A graduate degree can help set you apart from the those who have not earned this advanced credential. Specifically, a graduate degree may help provide the following:

  • Enhanced skills: Earning a graduate degree from an accredited5 university like DeVry University and our Keller Graduate School of Management helps you learn real-world skills and knowledge that can be applied to your career.

  • Higher Earning Potential: In 2019, graduates with master’s degrees earned nearly double the amount of high school graduates, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.6

  • Personal fulfillment: Earning a graduate degree can be the realization of a lifelong dream and bring great personal satisfaction to you and your family.

No. A bachelor’s degree is a type of undergraduate degree and must be earned before you can pursue a graduate degree or graduate certificate. Undergraduate degrees help you build a foundation in a particular area of study and develop soft skills in areas such as communication and teamwork. Graduate degrees, on the other hand, dive further into your subject area of choice while helping you to advance your leadership skills and prepare to take on more complex projects. 

A master’s degree is a type of graduate degree. Graduate degrees represent a category of degrees that can be pursued after an undergraduate education (such as a bachelor’s degree) and include master’s degrees and MBA degrees, as well as other advanced degrees such as doctorate degrees. 

Yes! Here at DeVry University and our Keller Graduate School of Management, you can earn a graduate degree, such as an MBA or specialized master’s degree, or a graduate certificate 100% online or in a hybrid1 format where you’ll complete a portion of your classes on-campus.  

We think so! We know that deciding to pursue a graduate education is a big decision and there are many factors you might consider when determining the value of your degree. Here are a few of the potential benefits you might find:

  • Pursue higher-level career opportunities: For some jobs, a bachelor’s degree can help you meet the minimum requirements. For others, however, a higher-level of education may be required. Earning a graduate degree may give your resume the boost you need to prepare to pursue a wider range of opportunities.

  • Prepare for a future you love: Many students attend grad school to pursue a long-time passion, self-development or to fulfill their love for lifelong learning.

  • Sharpen your business and leadership skills: Earning a graduate degree can be a great way to practice and enhance your skills in a variety of business and management areas.

  • Dive into a new area of study: In addition to honing your general business skillset, a graduate degree also gives you the opportunity to develop new skills in a specific area such as project management, information technology or marketing.

Yes. A Master’s of Business Administration degree, or MBA, is a type of graduate degree. As the name suggests, an MBA program teaches business skills and may include classes or specializations in business, engineering, education or healthcare. An MBA is designed to teach general management competencies in areas such as accounting, finance, leadership and economics.

Some master's degree programs at Keller (including our MBA degree program) allow you to focus your degree by taking elective courses in a specific subject area, often applicable to one or several career fields. This area is called a concentration or specialization.

In some of our specialized master's degree programs, you have the opportunity to focus your coursework in a specific area of interest by selecting an emphasis. Similar to a concentration or specialization, an emphasis allows you to hone in on a particular subject area as you work toward your degree. 

When pursuing a graduate education, there are a variety of options that may help you manage tuition costs, including scholarships or grants2 for those who apply and qualify. To learn more about tuition costs, financial aid and more, see our Financial Aid page.

Because the required number of credit hours varies by program, the length of time it takes for someone to complete their master’s program at Keller can vary, too. Our online MBA program requires 10-16 courses4, and our specialized master's degree programs require 13-15 courses. Depending on the program you select and the pace you prefer, you might take one or two classes per 8-week session.

You may be able to accelerate the journey to your master’s degree by using a combination of approved transfer credits, course waivers4 and/or credit for professional training to satisfy the requirements for up to six courses.

For example, if you’ve earned an undergraduate degree in business or a related field, you may have satisfied the requirements for up to four courses in a master’s degree program at Keller through our Master’s Advantage.4 To learn more about Master’s Advantage and other ways to earn credit for what you’ve already achieved, visit our Graduate Admissions page.

Before working with a DeVry Career Services Advisor, I was stuck on understanding the hiring and interviewing process and navigating how to transition from one career to the next. My advisor was able to give a lot of pointers during our very first meeting! I am excited to see how this process goes and hope to pursue my dream job with a Master in Public Administration, with the assistance of DeVry.
