תוכניות MBA אונליין – Online MBA
תוכניות Online MBA צוברות פופולריות בשנים האחרונות, ובתי ספר מובילים למנהל עסקים מציעים תוכניות אונליין בנוסף לתוכניות ה- full time MBA הרגילות. הסיבה לעליה בפופולריות של תוכניות האונליין היא שהסטודנטים הלומדים בהן לא צריכים להתפטר מעבודתם כדי להשלים את התואר. תוכניות אלו מספקות את הגמישות המקסימלית לסטודנט – בניגוד לתוכניות part time בהן הסטודנטים נדרשים לשבת בכיתה במשך מספר ערבים בשבוע, בתוכניות אונליין אין צורך בנסיעה לקמפוס כדי להשתתף בשיעורים. מבחינת דרישות הקבלה, תוכניות אונליין נוטות לוותר על הדרישה למבחני קבלה כגון GMAT או GRE. בנוסף, מאחר והלימודים מתקיימים במקביל לעבודה, חלק משכר הלימוד יכול להיות משולם ע"י המעסיק.
להלן כמה מתוכניות האונליין MBA המובילות לפי US NEWS:
