Graduate Program Requirements
The Master of Business Administration degree provided by National American University consists of three requirements: foundation courses, graduate core courses and elective courses. In addition, online students are required to complete two executive seminar sessions as part of their core course requirement.
The MBA degree may be earned under a non-thesis or a thesis plan. Under the non-thesis option, the student must satisfy 27 hours of foundation courses, 40.5 hours of graduate-level core courses, and 13.5 hours of electives. Under the thesis plan, the student must satisfy the 27 hours of foundation courses, 40.5 hours of graduate-level core courses, 4.5 hours of electives, and nine (9) hours of thesis.
An in-depth analysis of a case, accomplished in administrative policy, is designed to integrate the MBA core areas and is required in both the non-thesis and thesis plans to satisfy the university's requirement for a comprehensive program assessment. |
