Available to international applicants only, the international track MBA program provides F-1 international students a chance to expand their professional experiences in western culture and American organizations.
The Master of Business Administration (MBA) at United States University is a widely recognized and respected graduate degree. Designed to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, graduates are equipped with a broad array of skills across the functional domains of business. The program fosters advanced competencies in leadership, ethical reasoning, problem-solving, decision-making, global perspectives, and communication.
The graduate capstone, MGT699 requires students to have gained professional experience aligned with their major course of study while enrolled in their MBA. Thus, Curricular Practical Training (CPT) is a program requirement and students must take at least one term of CPT prior to entering MGT699. Students are permitted to take more than one term of CPT if they choose so long as they remain eligible. Once students have been authorized for CPT, they will be enrolled in MGT999 Graduate Professional Symposium.
