About the Program

Hofstra University is a private university located in Hempstead, New York. While MBA students at some online programs never need to know where their schools really are beyond their virtual urls, students of Frank G. Zarb School of Business online MBA program are invited to gather three times a year. Referred to as residencies, students gather on-campus at the start of the program during orientation period, and at the end of it, for three days leading up to graduation.

“The residencies are currently optional, but we are considering making them mandatory,” Dr. Kaushik Sengupta, director of the online MBA program, says. “Students can also choose to do a global practicum in the middle of the course, between the first and second year.”
Those who choose to join the optional global practicum go on a 12-day cultural immersion trip to several selected countries, where the team visits companies and gets to speak with various business leaders. In previous years, students have visited Brazil, Argentina, Dubai, India, and South Korea.

The two-year online MBA program takes in students once a year in September, and first launched in 2011. Students in the program can choose a concentration in Accounting, Business Analytics, Business Operations & Healthcare Analytics, Cybersecurity, Information Systems, International Business, Management, Marketing, and Sports & Entertainment Management. 

“Most of our students are mid to senior-level management, who have an average of 12 years experience,” Dr. Sengupta says. “We’ve been strong on the healthcare industry, with many of our students already working as doctors and nurses.”

Classes are kept small with a maximum of 25 students, and a cohort structure that fosters enhanced networking relationships among students.

The Graduate Business Career Center helps to connect students with industry opportunities to turn dreams into realities. The Center also help students with resume review, mock interviews, one-on-one career coaching appointments, employer information sessions, executive speakers, career development webinars, and corporate site visits.

To top things off, students in the program can also take part in a Career Leadership Assessment that is followed up with individualized executive coaching to facilitate career progression. To keep the school curriculum relevant, Dr. Sengupta says that several alums sit on the advisory board of the departments, and they are also invited to the orientation sessions to talk to the students about the program.
