- Business Practice-Focused, Not Management-Focused. There are plenty of MBA programs in California that specialize in management theory and practice. Our MBA program focuses on the practical side of business necessary to build a business or a business unit, without ignoring important management theory.
- Affordable. The Concordia MBA is priced at $915 per unit or $36,600 for the 40-unit program. This is a fraction of the cost of other campus-based and private MBA programs?and?Concordia has no GMAT requirement, which saves you both time and money. Our focus on business practice and our faculty of business professionals help us offer a very competitive tuition rate and we don’t believe that the GMAT is the best predictor of emerging business professionals.
- Design Your Own MBA. Our curriculum is highly-personalized and highly customizable, designed to allow you to focus on what is most relevant to your career and interests. After five core courses that all of our students take, you can choose from a wide variety of elective courses to design a curriculum custom-fit for students' skills and passions. Students also have the option of choosing a track that is focused on a specific business practice, such as Sales and Marketing or Green Business and Sustainability.
- Quality Assurance. The Concordia School of Business chose to voluntarily undergo a rigorous process with IACBE to evaluate the effectiveness of our business programs resulting in Concordia University Irvine receiving IACBE accreditation through June 2023. Students can be assured that at Concordia, our goal is your academic and occupational success.
- Faculty of Professionals. Our students learn how business is done by the people actually doing it. Concordia MBA professors teach from experience. When they're not in the classroom, many are running successful businesses of their own. Whether you want to advance in an established organization or start your own, students will learn how to make it happen from instructors who are dedicated to helping students explore and refine their talents.
