[edit] History
The School of Management at UCSD was established in 2001 and was renamed the Rady School of Management in January 2004. An executive education program in collaboration with the School of Medicine began in Fall 2003, and several others were offered in Spring 2004. The Rady School opened its doors to executive MBA students in fall 2004, and to full-time MBA students in September 2005.
[edit] Programs
A signature offering of the Rady programs is the Lab to Market course sequence that stresses the building of new businesses, using scientific and technological advances, and using innovation to identify, pursue and develop intrapeneurial opportunities within existing companies. The FlexMBA program's schedule accommodates working professionals- classes are held every other Friday and Saturday.
