About the Program

In the David Nazarian College of Business and Economics graduate programs, working professionals use their business experience, while incorporating academic rigor, to enhance their knowledge, skills, and abilities. Classes are offered in the evenings and/or on the weekends. The curriculum allows students to explore current trends in the business environment for relevance and added value in practice.
