For qualified upper-class undergraduate students in the Architectural Technology program, the School of Management, in conjunction with the School of Architecture and Fine Arts, offers a combined Bachelor of Science and Master of Business Administration degree program that will permit successful candidates to earn both degrees in five years of full-time attendance. The M.B.A. portion of the program can also be completed through part-time evening and Saturday studies while the candidate is employed.

The Corporate M.B.A. Program

As part of its commitment to service the business community, the School of Management may make available selected M.B.A. courses on-site for the benefit and convenience of corporate employers and will design specific industry related courses that can be offered as M.B.A. electives in the degree program. Similar programs have been conducted for the employees of a major airline, the Department of Defense at two military locations and for employees of a major corporation in New York State. The Corporate M.B.A. Program offers a unique synergism of theory and practice and it stresses involvement of the sponsoring organization in design and evaluation of course materials and teaching performance.
