B-School Launches Full Online MBA

Loyola University Maryland’s Sellinger School of Business and Management is launching a fully online MBA option.

The b-school announced earlier this month that the online MBA will feature accelerated eight-week sessions with small class sizes and a personalized student experience.

“We’ve built our new online classes from the ground up, designing them alongside our faculty who are dedicated to the success of every student and to providing engaging, meaningful experiences,” Kathleen Getz, Ph.D., dean of the Sellinger School, says in a press release. “The online classes are an extension of Sellinger’s commitment to powerful, ethical business education, presenting business as a crucial force for good in the world.”

PERSONALIZED STUDENT EXPERIENCES

Along with fully online courses, MBA students also have access to hybrid options which blend traditional in-person, hybrid, and online courses that enable them to create a personalized plan. In-person classes will take place on campuses in Columbia, Timonium, and downtown Baltimore.

“The new online courses increase the flexibility of our Professional’s MBA program, as students can mix and match different class formats to fit their schedules,” Bobby Waldrup, Ph.D., associate dean and professor of accounting, says. “The expanded options meet the needs of students interested in a Loyola MBA but require additional flexibility, such as business travelers, new parents, or experienced professionals outside our immediate market seeking a career boost.”
