Welcome to the UMass Amherst Online Part-Time MBA Program

The Isenberg School of Management at UMass Amherst is honored to be the exclusive provider of MBA education for the Oracle Applications Users Group (OAUG) and affiliated associations.

The Online Part-Time MBA Program is a self-paced 37-credit program designed for professionals looking for a quality MBA program that offers balance between demanding work and personal schedules.  The core curriculum consists of 34 credits (11 classes) focusing on the revelant topics of today's complex business environments plus 3 elective credits of your choosing.

The Online Campus

A very unique and flexible option of this program is to complete your MBA degree 100% online. The entire core curriculum is offered online every Spring, Summer, and Fall semester.  There is no campus residency requirement so you have the flexibility to complete your MBA degree online from anywhere in the world.  Or if you live in the New England area, you can also take courses at any of our satellite campus locations:  evenings in Holyoke and Shrewsbury or alternating weekends in Pittsfield - you choose what location works best for you.

Online courses are taught asynchronously - you decide what time of the day or week is most convenient to complete your coursework. This approach is attracting students from all 50 states and 19 foreign countries.

The Online Part-Time MBA courses are taught by the same Isenberg faculty and share the same core curriculum as our full-time MBA program.
