The McCallum Graduate School at Bentley University offers both suburban living and easy access to the major city of Boston, which in recent years, has been garnering innovative leaders in areas of art, science and technology. It is known for having quite the green campus, coming in at No. 42 according to The Princeton Review. The Bentley MBA teaches students social responsibility, ethical standards, and worldwide perspective.

A full-time MBA at McCallum is usually completed within 16-24 months and takes 39-54 credits to complete. Fifteen of these credits are foundation courses. Students can be waived of up to five foundation courses but waiving any more than three requires one or two elective replacements. If the full-time format doesn’t seem to be the right fit, Bentley also offers a part-time option, an online MBA, and a dual degree program. The B-School welcomed 400 students this year to these programs.

Concentrations are offered in Accountancy, Business Analytics, Finance, Information Systems and Technology, Law and Taxation, Leadership and Marketing to allow students to hone in on their specific interests.

McCallum’s Global Business Experience (GBE) allows students to earn credits while traveling alongside their peers to another country. While abroad, students are exposed to business in different cultures among different contexts, and they form connections with international corporations which prepare them academically for their post-trip final project. These experiences abroad are about 7-10 days and take place during winter or spring break.

Students also enjoy taking part in corporate immersion experiences where they work in the real-world alongside business leaders at top organizations tackling business challenges, gaining valuable experience alongside peers.

As for career placements, Bentley MBAs do pretty well, with 88% of graduates reporting job placement within 3 months of graduation.
