A Personal Business Education.

A Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree from Piedmont University will take your career to the next level. The program offers an MBA that combines a personal educational experience with the practical knowledge of faculty who have both private industry and academic experience. Plus, with small class sizes, direct interaction with faculty, and a focus on work/life/education balance, Piedmont’s MBA is perfect for busy, working adults.

Offered in an online format, Piedmont’s MBA program is designed to serve the educational and practical interests of those seeking managerial positions or wishing to progress to higher levels of responsibility within their existing organizations. To ensure the best experience, it is preferred, though not required, that those applying for Piedmont’s MBA have at least two years of relevant experience – especially those without prior business degrees. At Piedmont, you will move your business knowledge from understanding to execution, developing skills in critical thinking, ethical decision-making, leadership, and research. Plus, networking with fellow students and experienced faculty is an added benefit.

Graduate students choose Piedmont for their MBA for a variety of reasons. Few programs offer such a personalized experience at such an affordable cost, and the program features faculty who are not only qualified, but who have executed campaigns, projects, and management in the fields in which they teach.

MBA students also now have access to a summer travel abroad experience that can replace 6 credit hours of their 36-credit-hour curriculum.

The Walker College of Business received national accreditation in November 2007 and is reaccredited through 2029 by the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP) for both undergraduate and graduate business programs. 

Walker College of Business graduates have seen their careers accelerate after completing the MBA program. In communities around the country, Piedmont University MBA graduates are leaders in accounting, consulting, finance, management, marketing, and more.
