Welcome to the MBA Program
( Downloadable Brochure )
The College of Business (COB)
at Idaho State University (ISU)
offers a program leading to the degree of Master of Business Administration
(MBA) to holders of business and non-business bachelor's degrees. The MBA
program is accredited by the Association for the Advancement of Collegiate
Schools of Business (AACSB). In addition to the traditional MBA degree, the
program offers MBA degrees with emphasis areas in Accounting, Computer
Information Systems (CIS), Management, Marketing, Finance, and Health Care
Administration (HCA). The MBA program at Idaho State University was the first
to be accredited by the AACSB in the State of Idaho and remains committed to
the delivery of a high quality, rigorous program.
The traditional MBA provides a broad general degree,
particularly suited to those pursuing a managerial focus in their careers. The
Accounting, Computer Information Systems, Marketing, Management, Finance, and
Health Care Administration options provide specialized knowledge relating to
their respective fields. The Accounting emphasis meets the needs of students
who wish to satisfy requirements for certification as public accountants (CPA)
or certification as management accountants (CMA). Accounting emphasis courses
are generally offered only in the daytime and only in Pocatello. In the
interest of a more diverse student body, the college encourages and attracts a
number of full-time students from other parts of the United States and foreign
countries.
