In addition to a solid grounding in the fundamentals of business, the Freeman MBA offers three areas of concentration: Finance, Consumer Behavior, and Strategic Management and Leadership. These concentrations involve completing core classes plus 12 credit hours of elective course work. Concentrations allow you to focus your studies and develop skills in an area of business consonant with your career objectives. Consistent with the Freeman School's philosophy of the nature of business in a global economy, each student develops a supporting concentration in international business through the global leadership series. An optional energy specalization is available. From the generalist perspective of core classes to the sharply focused content of electives, the Freeman School delivers an MBA curriculum that is dynamic, interactive, flexible, and, above all, focused on your ultimate career goals.
