The General Management concentration provides a broad skillset that prepares business professionals for success in any industry or job function at any time in their career. The combination of our core curriculum which focuses on the basic business essentials (economics, accounting, finance, management, and marketing) followed by a broad set of electives, lays the groundwork for someone looking to assume more responsibility with their current employer or to seek a new position with a different company or industry. In their final semester, small groups of students spend the entire semester in a practicum course, working as consultants for one of our world-class corporate partners. For those with a non-business undergraduate degree, the General Management MBA is an ideal way to advance your business knowledge. The A&T MBA is among the state’s most affordable and holds the gold standard in business education accreditation from AACSB International. Our business program has been accredited since 1979.
