Masters of Business Administration (MBA)
"Fast-Track" Foundation Courses


Non-business undergraduate majors typically have to take foundation or leveling courses in business prior to taking the graduate core and elective courses. In the past, this included 30 semester hours of courses. At ASU we have developed what we call "Fast Track" Foundation Courses. Each of the five "Fast Track" courses covers only the material needed to take the graduate core and elective courses in the Graduate Program. The courses are presented in a modular format at an accelerated pace. This allows non-business undergraduates to get through the foundation requirements much quicker, thus reducing the length of time necessary to obtain a graduate degree. These courses are as follows:
