MBA Foundation and Elective Courses
The Master of Business Administration degree (MBA) is an evening program. It enhances its flexibility by offering the foundation requirements, and some electives and core courses, via the Internet.
Completion of the program’s foundation (required of applicants whose undergraduate degrees are not in business areas) is accelerated through shortened courses conducted online. This approach allows students to complete the courses anywhere they have Internet access — home, office, wherever.
Program electives and a core requirement are also offered online. The program offers a wide variety of elective courses through Internet partnerships with other University of Wisconsin business programs. Information about the MBA program and the Internet courses can be accessed at www.uwlax.edu/ba/graduate.
For more information and registration, contact the College of Business Administration at 608.785.8090.
