Program Details:
The Master
in Business Administration (MBA) develops students for
the role managers play in defining business problems,
assessing information, considering alternatives, and
choosing the best solution. Imagine the manager as the
hub of a wheel. From the hub radiate spokes, each
representing a specific discipline, such as finance,
law, marketing, operations, information systems, etc.
Each of these "spokes" generates inputs for
the manager to assess and incorporate into the
decision-making process. The manager is a critical
user of these inputs in making the decision. Although
generally not the original producer of the
information, the manager must be able to assess the
validity and reliability of the information in
building a business case for the decision.
To prepare
students for this decision-making role, the MBA has
been designed to introduce the theory or principles
that frame a wide range of problems or issues in each
of the courses. The most current techniques or tools
are applied to these theories to allow students to
practice making decisions to solve a wide range of
problems.
The MBA
consists of 46 credit hours. Thirty-one credit hours
constitute the core curriculum and 15 additional
credit hours complete the MBA. The core begins with a
one-credit, three-workshop, Managerial Communication
course designed to build strategies for success in the
MBA. It is a prerequisite to all the courses that
follow. The remainder of the core consists of 10,
three-credit courses, which all students who receive
an MBA from the University of Phoenix must complete.
Those students in the MBA without specialization will
complete five additional prescribed courses to hone
their problem solving skills.
Each
University of Phoenix MBA student will create and
maintain an electronic portfolio reflecting the
student's achievements throughout the MBA program. It
will include assignments from each course, typically
individual assignments, as well as other outcomes the
student may wish to add. These assignments will
demonstrate the student's ability to solve business
problems at the graduate level and serve as a partial
catalog of the skills the student has mastered.
