Program Schedule
A World-class MBA In Just 12 Months, While Working At
Your Current Job
Queen’s recognizes that, having earned an undergraduate degree in business, you have already received academic training in management fundamentals. With this in mind, we have created a schedule that enables you to earn your MBA degree in less time.
Earn Your MBA in One Year
Queen’s MBA for Business Graduates is a program that can be completed in 12 months, rather than the two years of a traditional full-time MBA program. Not only does this reduce the time requirement, it also reduces the cost. Furthermore, you can pursue this degree while you continue to work, rather than disrupting your career.
12 Days Between Class Weekends
By scheduling classes all day Sunday and Monday morning of every other week, Queen’s gives you 12 days off between class weekends to organize your business, travel or personal plans. Monday afternoons after class can be used to work on group assignments, summarize class discussions, and prepare for presentations. They are also an excellent opportunity for tutorials and consultations with faculty. We confirm the class schedule in advance so you can plan ahead. We understand that you have other obligations and commitments that you can’t leave behind.
Balanced Workload
The Queen’s MBA for Business Graduates schedule typically requires a commitment of approximately 20 hours each week, in addition to class time. Exams, projects, and assignments are divided evenly throughout the year, so that you can develop a regular work pattern.
A Focus that Encourages Mastery
At Queen’s you take three courses at a time, allowing you adequate time for study and reflection on each subject. This is an in-depth approach supporting mastery of the material.
Please note: the schedule for the class commencing in January, 2013 is currently being developed.
