Program Summary

Students with a strong foundation in business concepts and fundamentals, which they earned through either a one-year MBA, a Master in Management, or a Master in Management Studies program from certain accredited universities can build on this prior knowledge with The Duke MBA—Accelerated Daytime program. Over 12 months, students immerse themselves in the electives and experiential learning opportunities that support their unique goals.

Concentrations

The Accelerated Daytime MBA program offers many opportunities to enrich one’s knowledge of business fundamentals. Students may choose to broaden their experience across multiple academic areas, or to earn concentration or certificate credentials in the one or two areas that will advance their career. Specialized concentrations provide the option to deepen their educational experience, so they are more fully prepared for the specific challenges of their career. While a concentration is not required, students may choose one in any of the major functional or topical areas—or both. It is a way to further refine the business and leadership skills students need to capture the hearts, minds, and hands of entire organizations.
