Three Part-Time MBA Formats
Executive MBA: Designed for professionals with at least six years of work experience, with students averaging 13-16 years of experience. Classes are held in person, every other Friday and Saturday.
Professional MBA: A flexible, hybrid format program for working professionals. Classes are held twice a week in the evenings—one night on campus and one night online.
MBA Online: The same incredible program, experienced faculty, and state-of-the-art resources delivered in an online format accessible from anywhere with an internet connection.
STUDENTS SPEAK ON PROGRAM ROI
I have seen a very strong return on investment from the MBA. In fact, since I’ve completed the program, my income has gone up by 75%. I’ve seen many more opportunities open up. It’s made it a lot easier for me to be employable, for me to be successful, and for me to make a solid income for my family.

I selected the Executive MBA program at the University of Utah because of its outstanding reputation. The EMBA program was endorsed by my company, as well as colleagues who have completed the program. The quality of faculty as well as the caliber of students in the program made it an easy choice for me.

WORK WHILE YOU EARN YOUR DEGREE
I feel like the faculty, the teachers, and the advisors do everything they can to make sure that your experience and your life circumstances are accounted for throughout the program. Without the online format, this would be impossible for me.

BUILD AN IMPACTFUL NETWORK
Within these relationships, I’ve had friends move to other peers’ companies and vice versa. You build this sense of friendship but also professionalism among each other, which has helped many of us grow in different avenues. This growth is not just from a social aspect, but also from the monetary and career aspects.

UTAH’S PART-TIME PROGRAMS ARE HIGHLY RANKED
At the decision point, it was the high domestic and world ranking of the program, the bi-weekly schedule, the incredible support, and the overall completion time, in that order, which were my main reasons for choosing the program. A little bit of foreshadowing I now consider those reasons to be icing on the cake.
Adam D’Sousa | Executive MBA Alum
The University of Utah it’s definitely a brand name. I wanted to be able to leverage that ranking and reputation later on. And I know that they have a very strong alumni network, which was really important to me.

ACCELERATE YOUR CAREER & INCREASE JOB PROSPECTS
There’s lots of different resources within this program to help you find your next job if that’s what you’re looking for. If you’re just looking to bump up in your job, they will help you navigate that. Built into the program, you have an executive career coach that will work with you. That’s like a $10,000 bonus right there. I started meeting with mine the minute the program started.

I’ve felt very confident about what this program has provided me. Involving my workplace leadership in my career plan really helped them see how hard I was working to contribute in my role and for my team. I’ve seen raises during the two years that I’ve been in the program, and I can definitely say that I’ll continue to see an ROI as I progress and deliver a meaningful return and value for myself and my company.
