MBA

The business world is ever changing - the WPI MBA gets you ready to make those changes.  An MBA that is grounded in technology will give you the skills needed for a fast-changing world.

Online or On Campus.  Your Choice.
The MBA may be completed entirely on campus, through a blended learning approach that combines asynchronous Web-based learning with on-campus classes, or through a flexible combination of both. Online courses at WPI offer the same high-caliber content and faculty as on campus courses. 

Be prepared for key aspects of technology management:

• Leading technology-based organizations
• Integrating technology into organizations
• Creating new processes, products, services, and organizations based on technology

Specializations allow you to focus on the most technically challenging areas of business today:

• Entrepreneurship
• Information Security Management
• Information Technology
• Operations Management
• Process Design 
• Supply Chain Management
• Technological Innovation
• Technology Marketing

Your MBA program consists of  three distinct areas:

1. Required Courses. Ten integrative courses ensure a solid foundation in the major functional business areas. (Six of the required courses ay be waived based upon prior coursework.)
2. Required Projects. Experiential learning is key to understanding new material and concepts. Pre-Capstone and Capstone courses (two in total) are integrated into the MBA program.
3. Elective Courses. Four elective courses allow you to pursue your chosen area of specialization.  These courses may also be taken in other WPI graduate program areas such as engineering or the sciences.
