The Master of Business Administration in San Diego and the Master of International Business Administration in San Diego and Mexico City are closely aligned programs, with the latter having coursework that more heavily emphasizes the international aspects of the world of business and management. Our mission is to provide students with a range of knowledge, skills and problem-solving abilities to respond to the need for successful management of business firms, government organizations, and not-for-profit organizations in a changing transnational environment.
Master's programs provide advanced skills in selected business and management disciplines, including practical experience in the application of those skills in the context of the overall dynamics of organizations; change manager and change agent skills; skill in working as a member of a multicultural team; and an ability to collect, analyze and critically evaluate data as well as other information to arrive at reasoned conclusions. They also provide the skills to evaluate the environments of organizations and develop responsive strategies for organizations and advanced competence in interpersonal, oral, written, quantitative and technology management skills. The master's programs prepare students for positions in management or consulting, or entry into doctoral programs.
