UC Berkley is offering a competitive part time MBA program that is flexible for students of all kinds. It allows students to stay on the job, travel or allow them to obtain an MBA at their pace with their five year limit.
Momentum is vital, Breen tells Poets&Quants, especially for part-time students who have to balance work, school, and family. Sometimes students want to accelerate their studies, and sometimes they lose momentum and need to “stretch things out.” Berkeley Haas is amenable to either approach, allowing students to take along as five years to get their degree. “If they’re having a really busy time at work or there’s a lot of pressure or they’re traveling a lot, we can work with them,” Breen says.
I find this program to be a great achievement for Berkley as they allow themselves to get more students into their program and also encourage students to pursue the MBA.
Do you think this program by UC Berkley is a smart idea or do you rather prefer the traditional two year program instead?
