UConn’s flagship full-time MBA curriculum takes two years to complete. The school’s interdisciplinary MBA curriculum leverages traditional academic instruction with unique learning accelerators successfully closing the gap between theory and practice. Essential to UConn’s MBA Program curriculum is what it calls innovative experiential learning accelerators, which includes the GE/UConn Edge Lab, SS&C Technologies Financial Accelerator, Innovation Accelerator, and a $2 million student-managed fund.

Year one of the program follows a lock-step format in which all students go through the core curriculum together – no exceptions. The first year curriculum guarantees a core set of knowledge for every UConn MBA student. The first year core curriculum covers fundamentals across all business disciplines

In the spring of Year one, MBA students develop an Individualized Plan of Study that consists of 8 courses (24 credits). After fulfilling the summer Internship milestone, MBA students continue with Year 2, pursuing the customized plan of study. UConn MBA students take a total of 57 credits (19 three-credit courses) in the program.
