Some MBA programs are reportedly finding success in the economic downturn by offering programs that offer greater flexibility to full-time professionals.
This week, the Boston Globe cited several area programs that are making adjustments to lure MBA candidates who are more focused on weathering the recession with their current jobs intact.
For example, Boston College reportedly starts some MBA classes late enough to allow students to avoid having to leave work early, while Boston University offers classes at a new suburban location close to many area technology companies. Another example cited was Northeastern University, which allows students to work on degrees for up to seven years.
Many MBA students are facing new challenges in the form of layoffs and less tuition support from employers. But with an economic recovery expected in a year, opportunities will still be available to professionals with advanced business training. A nighttime program could be an ideal way to earn a degree while still maintaining your career.
If you don't feel like an MBA degree would fit in with your current schedule, one possibility could be to explore online MBA programs, which can offer greater flexibility and considerable cost savings over traditional programs.
