Master's Degrees
Globe University/Minnesota School of Business offers two graduate programs that provide preparation for management opportunities. This discussion briefly outlines distinctions between the programs:
Call 877-655-7676 or contact admissions to discuss the programs with a representative.
Program contrasts
- Specific or general studies: A large share of the MSM student’s studies are industry-specific, directly related to an area in which the student has been working—IT, health care management or operations management. The MBA program, meanwhile, provides a broader overview of business operations and management skills that can be applied in any organization or entrepreneurial venture.
- Practicum experiences: The MBA program concludes with a single 25-week practicum—either a business plan for an entrepreneurial enterprise, or a business project within an existing organization. The MSM includes several practicums in addition to a concluding 25-week business project.
- Admission: Graduate admission decisions are made on the basis of several variables and an interview with the program dean or the dean's representative. An applicant eligible for the MSM program will typically have experience or a special interest in the chosen area of emphasis. The MBA program applicant may have preparation in any area of study.
Shared features
The MBA and MSM programs have the following features in common:
- All classes offered through our online division as well as at various campus locations
- An emphasis on incorporating theory and practice in the workplace
- Specific benefits for international students
- Credit for course-equivalent work experience and transfer of credits from approved institutions*
Please feel free to contact Globe University/Minnesota School of Business with any questions, or to begin the process of applying to one of our graduate programs.
*Please contact your campus dean about the process of applying for credit.
