The Wisconsin Full-Time MBA curriculum integrates a strong foundation in general management with highly focused preparation in your chosen career field. You will begin taking courses in your career specialization right away. This early start helps you achieve your full potential and makes your applied learning experiences richer.
Applied learning opportunities connect you with industry leaders and help you build a strong résumé. Students apply the general business knowledge and specialized preparation gained in their first year to mid-program internships, where they tackle real-world business challenges and propose solutions.
You may also choose to participate in a global learning experience, gaining a wider perspective by working on a team project for a company outside of the United States.
The strategic human resource management specialization in the Wisconsin MBA Program counts as two years toward the work experience required by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) in order to sit for the certification exam. This is an advantage for those seeking SHRM certification for the first time, as well as current SHRM-CP holders.
