Midway University’s MBA is designed for adult learners interested in moving their careers forward, meeting the demands of a challenging workplace by increasing their level of competence and resolving increasingly complex business issues. A graduate of the program is a critical thinker who has the business acumen and the leadership and interpersonal skills necessary to identify, analyze and solve problems in a global business environment.
The program has a practice-to-theory-to-practice orientation. Students are taught to go beyond the logic of analysis and planning to include discussion of the nuances of management actions and experiences.
The selection process for Midway’s MBA students will emphasize strong academic ability and personal qualities and characteristics. Admission eligibility will be assessed via:
* If the applicant’s degree is not in the area of business, the student must successfully complete BUSM 501 Foundations of Graduate Business within the first term of enrollment in the MBA program.
Six credits per semester is considered full-time enrollment. A student enrolled in a minimum of three credits per semester is considered to be enrolled half-time.
Prior to graduation, graduate students will be required to complete the “Business Major Field Test.” This test is anonymous in the sense that the results are not recorded in a student’s academic file but the results are aggregated to help the University have a record of how well the learning process is succeeding.
To graduate, a student must complete a minimum of 30 course credits with a cumulative GPA of at least 3.0. No more than six of these credit hours may be transferred from another institution.
