Program Overview

According to a 2016 report from the Graduate Management Admission Council, those who earn a graduate degree in business recoup their tuition investment within an average of four years. Ninety-five percent of the alumni in the report rated their degree as an "excellent or outstanding" value.

The University's MBA program helps students tailor their education to their professional ambitions by offering areas of emphasis in accounting, entrepreneurship, finance, information technology and renewable energy. MBA students can also pursue other areas of emphasis by taking graduate courses of their choice outside of the College of Business. 

The Nevada MBA program accommodates the needs of students by offering all evening courses. Students can complete a degree at their own pace without interrupting their professional career. This MBA program is also among a select group of worldwide graduate business programs accredited by the  (AACSB), the highest level of accreditation attainable in business education.

The University's MBA program has appeared on several lists of top business school in recent years. Kambiz Raffiee, Ph.D., associate dean for the University's College of Business and director of its MBA program, says this is because of the quality of its faculty and the student-focused nature of the program.

"Our faculty is comprised of internationally respected scholars with real-world experience and a passion for teaching and inspiring students," says Raffiee. "Our class sizes are relatively small, which prevents students from getting lost in the crowd. Our extensive ties to local, regional and national business communities through the Office of Corporate Partners and Outreach and the Office of Career Services help students and alumni when it comes time to navigate their careers."
