The MBA with Supply Chain Management concentration is a 36-credit option that is delivered in a 100 percent online format and is available to all MBA students regardless of location or track selection.
The John L. Grove College of Business is accredited by AACSB International, which certifies the quality of the curriculum, faculty, and support services. The Ship MBA program offers high quality and outstanding value with courses taught by highly qualified faculty, who will help you develop the knowledge and skills you need to succeed in a rapidly changing global economy. Our graduate students find the Ship MBA convenient, reputable, and affordable.
The program consists of twelve courses (36 credits), which includes a choice of seven out of eight core courses, four out of five concentration courses and the capstone course. The core courses cover critical elements of business management in today’s technologically advanced and global business environment. The course sequence is flexible, as most core courses do not have prerequisites beyond the basic requirements to enter the MBA program.
Ship delivers its MBA degree program in three convenient formats: 100% online asynchronous with optional synchronous content, 100% online with some required synchronous components, and face-to-face with some asynchronous online components. The requirements are the same in each of the three delivery formats.
Part-time or Full-time
The Ship MBA is a flexible program designed to accommodate the needs of both working professionals and full-time students. Students can complete the program part-time in two years, taking two classes per semester. Full-time students can complete the program in as little as one calendar year, taking four classes per semester. Classes are offered in convenient, accelerated 8-week sessions as well as 6-week summer terms and a 5-week winter term. Most part-time students choose to take only one class in any given session or term, thus allowing for more concentrated study of each topic.
Some exams may be proctored and require students to arrange an appointment at an approved proctoring site at a location convenient to them.
