    Graduate Program Concentrations

    Accounting Analytics

    Accounting information systems play an essential role in organizing, analyzing, and safeguarding financial data. This concentration prepares managers to use accounting data, information systems, and analytics software to identify patterns, assess risk, support decision-making, and address issues related to auditing, fraud, and organizational controls.

    Artificial Intelligence

    AI is among the most disruptive technologies ever developed; it has the potential to increase productivity exponentially and also introduces social and environmental concerns. Learn how to effectively harness its power and limit risk to gain a competitive edge, while earning our nationally ranked MBA.

    Business Intelligence

    In a world of artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies, businesses need to carefully manage data and decision-making processes; learn how this can be accomplished efficiently and effectively.

    Business Turnaround Management

    Managing and reviving an organization in distress requires different skills and techniques, and brings different rewards, than managing a stable or growing institution. This concentration focuses on making firms sustainable and positioning them for success.

    Financial Accounting

    This concentration strengthens managers’ understanding of accounting principles and their application in complex business settings. It prepares MBAs to interpret financial information, support sound business decisions, and pursue roles that require advanced financial accounting knowledge.

    Human Resource Management

    An essential asset of any organization, and a crucial input to any production process, is personnel. Learn how to effectively hire, professionally develop, promote, compensate, and incentivize employees to achieve organizational goals, in both unionized and nonunionized environments.

    International Business

    Nearly all modern organizations operate in a global environment, with raw materials, production, employees, and/or customers abroad, and they are influenced by trends and fluctuations in populations, exchange rates, investment opportunities, geopolitical constraints, tariffs, and cultural differences. Become adept at managing an organization in the global context, bridging differences in languages, time zones, social norms, and laws.

    Management

    Gain expertise in establishing a clear organizational mission and vision, competitive analysis, strategic planning, executing goals and objectives, progress tracking, innovating, and celebrating achievements, all while navigating a complex and changing economic, legal, regulatory, political, and social environment.

    Marketing

    Learn to use best practices and emerging technologies to conduct market research, develop products and services that resonate with consumers, establish appropriate pricing, promote products and services successfully, and track sales to achieve organizational objectives.

    Supply Chain Management

    Learn the logistics of bringing raw materials from widely dispersed locations into a common production process, and distributing output through various channels (direct-to-consumer, through wholesalers and/or retailers, etc.) to end users who may also be geographically dispersed.
