Business Administration: MBA

The University of Delaware master of business administration (UD MBA) program is accredited by AACSB International (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business). Students may pursue either a full-time, part-time or online course of study in the UD MBA program in the Alfred Lerner College of Business and Economics.

Visit program website for more information.

The MBA Conditional Admissions Program (MBA-CAP) is a joint program of the University of Delaware’s Alfred Lerner College of Business and Economics and the University’s English Language Institute. MBA-CAP provides international students whose native language is not English with an opportunity to be accepted into the UD MBA program without the need to take the TOEFL exam. Instead, students enroll in the English Language Institute before beginning their MBA coursework. This provides an opportunity for students to improve their English while developing other important skills that are necessary for success in the UD MBA program.

Program Specializations:

The AACSB-accredited MBA offers specializations in one of 11 fields, as majors or concentrations. The MBA major in business analytics is a STEM designated degree and provides international students 24 months of OPT (Optional Practical Training) in addition to the original 12 months.
