One-Year MBA

Where tomorrow's leaders accelerate today. 

Business doesn’t wait — why should you? SLU's One-Year MBA is a full-time, cohort-based program that spans just three terms (summer, fall, spring). It’s designed to immerse you in the heart of business strategy, data-driven decision making, and global leadership — all in 11 months.
