Educational Excellence
As a dually-accredited AACSB institution, Boler's programs rank among the world's best. That statement spares all nonsense - it's a fact. Prove to your company or future employer your ability to make wise business decisions and select an AACSB institution for your graduate business studies - even if it's not Boler. (It takes only a minute to search by survey, by location, or by alphabetical listing.) Of course, with a curriculum based in the Jesuit tradition, Boler provides educational excellence that offers you a degree that will act as much more than a "piece of paper" - it will certify your authenticity as an agent for positive change.
Leading from the Heart
With a foundation in over 450 years of Jesuit teaching, Boler focuses on providing you with the tools necessary to make decisions that are ethical - ones that are right for your company, your employees, your customers, and the larger community. With official assessments of your personal leadership skills and an evaluation of your career plan, your curriculum will prepare you to become a leader who makes a difference.
Consideration for Ethics and Social Responsibility
As a Jesuit University, John Carroll University is dedicated to developing socially responsible leaders. Boler graduate business programs end with two capstone courses, one of which focuses on using ethics and social responsibility to integrate the teachings of all other courses. You can expect every course to discuss significant ethical issues along with a number of social responsibility factors to consider.
Personalized Instruction
Our faculty care about the development of each student. Our classes are small (typically 20-25 students at maximum). This means that, as a student, your contribution to the classroom environment is important each and every class period. The faculty will know you by name and most classes are very conversational in nature. Listen to what Dr. Weinstein, Chair of the Accountancy department, says on the subject.
Program Flexibility
Boler's programs are self-paced. Each course meets once per week during the Fall and Spring semesters, allowing students to take as few as one to as many as four courses per semester. Summer classes meet twice per week. Having the option to begin the program during any semester, you have lots of options to best suit your schedule.
There is also flexibility in career movement. John Carroll University has established agreements with 29 other AACSB International accredited Jesuit-related universities to facilitate completion of the MBA for those students faced with a job transfer to another city. These agreements minimize the loss of graduate credit hours that normally result when transferring. For a listing of participating universities, please visit http://www.jesuitmba.org.
