Tepper Part-Time Accelerated MBA: Expedited for Business Majors

Do you have an undergraduate business degree or some business courses under your belt? Fast-track your Tepper MBA through our Part-Time Accelerated MBA program.

Why Choose the Tepper Part-Time Accelerated MBA?

The Tepper Part-Time Accelerated MBA is for business graduates or individuals with undergraduate business coursework experience who want to earn an MBA through a part-time online format in a two-year time frame.

The Part-Time Accelerated MBA may be for you if:

• You have 3-7 years of work experience.
• In the last 10 years, you have taken accounting, finance, marketing, microeconomics, and operations courses from an accredited undergraduate institution.
• You want the flexibility of an online degree program at a top MBA program.

Identical Degree. Faster.

In the Tepper Part-Time Accelerated MBA program, you’ll get challenging and rewarding coursework taught by the professors who lead the Full-Time program. You’ll pursue an analytics-focused curriculum in a part-time online hybrid format, but in less time than the Tepper Part-Time Online Hybrid program.

Because students in the Part-Time Accelerated MBA program have earned an undergraduate business degree or have taken core business courses in the last 10 years, they receive credit for their acquired business knowledge and take refresher coursework in their first semester.

In the Part-Time Accelerated program, you’ll earn the same STEM-designated MBA — but faster— and be ready to lead at the speed of change.
