Boise State Executive MBA Program Plans Final Information Session for Prospective Students, Companies

Due to increased interest, Boise State University’s Executive MBA program will hold a final information session on June 22 for prospective students. Classes begin in September 2009 and participants earn an MBA degree in two academic years of part-time class attendance.

Boise State’s program began in 2006, and in 2008 about 96 percent of its graduates gave the overall program the highest possible rating in an independent survey by the International Executive MBA Council. That compared with an average score for participating schools worldwide of 83 percent. In addition, about 70 percent of Boise State’s Executive MBA alumni report that they have received promotions or otherwise advanced their careers as a direct result of their participation in the program.

The Executive MBA program is designed specifically for middle- to senior-level professionals who wish to obtain a master’s in business administration on a schedule that minimizes disruption of work and personal pursuits. The informational session will run from 5:30-7:30 p.m. in The Loft on the fifth floor of the Stueckle Sky Center on the west side of Bronco Stadium. Those planning to attend should e-mail emba@boisestate.edu or call (208) 426-4034 to reserve a space.

All undergraduate and graduate programs in Boise State’s College of Business and Economics (COBE) are accredited by AACSB-International — the premier accrediting organization for business programs —putting it in the top 25 percent of business schools nationally and top 4 percent worldwide. COBE is the only AACSB-accredited school in the Treasure Valley.
