Business Elective (3 credits)
Three elective units provide an opportunity for advanced work in a business specialty or industry issue. At least three 1-credit short courses are offered on campus each year, typically taught by international faculty or business consultants, that focus on cutting edge trends or challenging business issues. Students may also select a study abroad opportunity or transfer units from another accredited MBA program.
Business Capstone Experience (1 credit)
In your last semester as a UNI MBA student, you'll apply the business principles and analytical methods you learned throughout the program by working as a consultant for a business or nonprofit organization in the region. Working in a team with a faculty mentor, you will develop strategies to improve organizational performance. You'll gain hands-on experience analyzing business situations, identifying alternative solutions to problems and providing recommendations for performance improvement.
Preparation for Success
Success in an MBA program requires academic preparation for the advanced business curriculum as well as a collection of critical thinking, communication and relationship skills that we describe as a managerial mind set.
- Academic prerequisites can be met with undergraduate business courses, online review courses or professional work experience. We work with each student individually to ensure your readiness.
- Taking a leadership role involves thinking strategically, maintaining a global perspective, building talent and making sustainable changes in key processes. New students participate in two Saturday workshops to learn the frameworks, then take advantage of online resources, reflection prompts and self-assessment exercises to solidify their critical thinking, problem solving, team management and communication skills.
