The competitive landscape is changing rapidly, and students want to pursue
an MBA because they recognize the need to stay ahead of the curve. At VSB, we
are committed to providing a learning experience that equips students with the
skills to innovate, adapt, and lead in a world that is in constant flux. That’s
why our MBA curriculum recently was redesigned, based on direct feedback from
alumni, current students, corporate leaders, and subject matter experts. This
collaboration resulted in a selection of classes that emphasize the importance
of delivering business education that is current, applied, and cross-functional.
As a student in The Villanova MBA Fast Track, you will:
- Gain knowledge of basic business functions: accounting, finance, economics, information technology, management, and marketing.
- Explore emerging fields, such as corporate risk management, strategic management and global organization, and supply chain management.
- Further develop your leadership skills and desire to fulfill your responsibilities as a corporate citizen.
