An MBA, or Master of Business Administration, is a graduate degree that aims to prepare students for higher-level positions, such as leadership roles, within the greater field of business. Unlike many other graduate degrees, which tend to be highly specialized, an MBA can be taken with a general approach or focus on a specific topic. Some areas of focus for an MBA can include accounting, finance and marketing. Many MBAs are also focused on career preparation which can be helpful as you grow in your career.
Yes! You can earn your Master of Business Administration (MBA) online. At DeVry, we offer our MBA program in both hybrid (on-campus and online) and 100% online formats. We know that many of our MBA students are already working in the business field and are looking for a way to improve their comprehension of business while adding an important credential to their resume. Because of this, we offer our MBA program with flexible online options to enable you to study on your schedule.
The time it takes to earn an MBA can vary, depending on the institution. At DeVry you can earn your MBA in as few as 10 courses2, depending on your course load and any qualifying transfer credits5.
We believe that an online MBA can absolutely be worth it if you wish to further your understanding of the business world and work toward your goals. People with MBA degrees may be positioned to pursue higher-level or leadership roles, as MBAs typically develop not only your industry insight but also your interpersonal and leadership skills. For example, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, top executives at large corporate companies will typically hold a bachelor’s degree or a master’s degree in a business-related field, such as an MBA6.
An MBA degree can be an excellent first step toward pursuing a higher-level position within a company. Some of the jobs that graduates of our MBA degree program may consider include:
Business Operations Manager
IT Director
Management Analyst
Market Research Analyst
Marketing Manager
Operations Research Analyst
Product Manager
Project Manager
