Weekend MBA Program Schedule

We designed the Weekend MBA schedule for working professionals who live outside of North Carolina. But local students who travel during the week love it, too.

Concentrated learning
On-campus residencies allow you to focus on coursework without distractions. Extended time with classmates builds strong connections that will last your entire career. Between sessions, you will have more flexibility for family and business travel.

Two Immersion Weeks

• Kick-off: The Class of 2011 begins with a residential immersion week in January 2010. You will begin core course classes and get to know your study team. Your partner can join you Friday evening through Saturday for special partner activities and social events.
• Core course wrap-up: A second residential immersion week, held in December 2010, wraps up the core courses.

• Convenient: Classes are held Friday and Saturday, twice a month. Friday classes start at 9:30, so most students fly or drive in Friday morning. Saturday classes end at 4:00, so you will travel home that evening. Your Sunday will be free.
• Manageable: The core courses are arranged to so that exams are staggered. This makes managing study time easier. In addition to classes, most students spend 12-20 hours a week in individual study or team meetings.
• Flexible: During the last eight months, you will attend elective courses. You may choose weekend electives or join Evening Program students for electives during the week. You may also choose global immersions lasting 10 to 14 days.
