All the rigor of a UNC MBA
You will earn the same degree as graduates of UNC’s traditional MBA Program. Our curriculum is more concentrated than the traditional MBA. We engage our students in more in-depth classroom discussions to take advantage of their business experience. They will tell you this is no “MBA-lite.”
UNC’s MBA for Executives Programs are fully accredited by AACSB International (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business), the premier accrediting agency.
