An MBA Experience that Meets Your Needs

Whether you are full-time or part-time, an international student or non-degree seeking, there are many ways to complete the program of study.

The MBA program is designed to achieve two key objectives: relevance and flexibility. It provides students with flexibility in both time to completion and delivery mode. Students may choose a completion schedule as little as 4 semesters (full-time) or several years and may elect to complete the program online, on-campus, or a blend of both. In the event of a job transfer, or other major life event, students are able to seamlessly switch program delivery mode and continue with their degree completion.

 

Create Your Own Success

Choose Your Delivery Option and Pace

No matter which delivery option you choose, it's the same ODU MBA

We offer multiple delivery options. You can attend as a part-time or full-time student. You may take classes on-campus or online. Online courses are offered in the asynchronous format.

Complete the degree in as few as 4 semesters as a full-time student or 6 as a part-time student.

If your scheduling needs change, you can seamlessly switch program delivery modes and continue your path to completing your MBA.
