The MBA-BA builds on this success with a similar lineup of courses taught by the same experienced professors.

We've also modelled our curriculum based on feedback from top employers, ensuring that you graduate with a skillset that is highly relevant and valued in today's business environment.

Graduates of the MBA-BA will receive both an MBA and a certificate in Business Analytics.

Personal Attention

We also prioritize personalized attention. Our small class sizes ensure enhanced interaction and productive communication with both professors and peers. Furthermore, our dedicated enrollment counselors are always ready to assist you with course registration and ensure you meet all deadlines and requirements. 

Fast and Flexible

Despite the comprehensive nature of our program, you can complete your degree in 16 months (from August to December of the following year.) This is made possible by our 8-week accelerated course format, allowing you to fast-track your path to increased responsibilities and rewards that come with a higher position.

Small classes

Class size is kept small for enhanced interaction, so that professors are able to communicate frequently and productively with online and on-ground students.
