As part of our elective offerings, Flex MBA students may enroll in one or more international courses that include travel abroad.  Quite different from a traditional part-time MBA program, the Flex MBA Program allows students to stretch the boundaries of the classroom and expand their professional portfolios.

Not Your Typical Part-Time MBA Program

Faculty member Don Rahtz understands how important it is for business students to have experiences with global analysis and cultural immersion, as the world of business continues to shrink.

Professor Rahtz describes his primary objectives for the course as:

"1) to introduce students to the interactive concepts of business decision making in the global environment, 2) to enable students to understand the cultural issues at the corporate, national and transnational levels, and 3) to provide insights on effective decision making in unfamiliar or cross-cultural settings."

Other international destinations are India, Southeast Asia, and Brazil.
