MBA Program

Auburn Montgomery’s Master of Business Administration program prepares students from either business or non-business backgrounds for management and administrative careers in for-profit, non-profit and public sector organizations. One of the most versatile degrees to earn, Auburn Montgomery’s M.B.A. is accredited by the AACSB International.

If you plan to sit for the CPA exam in Alabama, note that Alabama requires at least 150 semester hours of academic preparation before you will be deemed qualified. Most students must complete additional courses beyond a baccalaureate degree program in accounting.

You can use the MBA to complete the additional course requirements at the graduate level. Consult with an accounting advisor and the appropriate State Board of Accountancy to plan your program.

Program of Study

The program of study is divided into three parts:

  • A Basic Program consisting of 11 half-term courses that provides the student with a review of broad business concepts;

  • A Core Program consisting of seven courses that extends the manager's knowledge in all areas of business; and

  • The option to specialize in an area or pursue the general degree option and work in their particular area of interest. Area options include:

                Contract Management 
                Economics 
                Finance 
                Global Business Management 
                Management of Information Technology 
                Management
