Our MBA professors all have exceptional academic and corporate backgrounds. Each have built their corporate credentials in diverse industries and have undertaken numerous management roles and responsibilities, throughout their careers. As a team they have a broad range of business experiences and analytical perspectives on contemporary issues that will prove to be invaluable to you.

In Berkeley College's MBA program, you can earn an additional credential, typically without taking additional classes. You can specialize in one of seven concentrations: Accounting, Financial Management, Human Resource Management, Healthcare Management, Law Enforcement Executive Management, Marketing Management (Beginning Spring 2024), or Supply Chain Management. Each concentration consists of four elective courses, available after completing the core curriculum, but before taking the Capstone course. MBA students are strongly encouraged to select one of the concentrations before registering for their second session in the Program.

The selected concentration may be in your current field or in one you aspire toward. The concentration you choose takes up all of your available electives in the program, and upon completion of the program results in a notation of the concentration on your student transcript. Some students may want to sample electives from multiple specialties and not commit to a concentration. While that is also an option for you, we will arrange a discussion with the MBA Program Director to gain perspective on your decision regarding a concentration. After all, many people change careers over their working lives - but the MBA degree curriculum, specialty or not, will continue to have value to you throughout.
