What is the Lehigh MBA Core?

the LEHIGH MBA is the culmination of the experiences of our faculty and their commitment to maintain excellence and relevance in graduate business education. the LEHIGH MBA places great emphasis on continuously integrated relevant concepts and challenges that are daily introduced to the business community at large. Currently, the Core incorporates global business concepts and analysis, multi-cultural awareness, organizational leadership, sustainability, crisis management resolutions, social consciousness issues, ethical decision-making, and optional business consulting projects. The Core also focuses on the business value chain, and the way in which different functional areas come together to create a competitive advantage: students experience decision-making from the perspective of the company as a whole.

the LEHIGH MBA is a 36-credit program which can be pursued both full-time, part-time, or by distance at participating satellite companies and locations. The Core is comprised of 21 credits; the remaining 15 credits are made up of electives and/or concentrations. the LEHIGH MBA begins with a mandatory one-day [1] orientation and ends with a capstone simulation course that draws upon the student's knowledge acquired during the core curriculum experience:

• Introduction to the Organization & Environment
• Managing Financial & Physical Resources
• Managing Information
• Managing Products & Services
• Managing People
• Integrative Experience
  

Once you accept to enter the program, your journey begins with a one-day orientation designed for an introduction to the LEHIGH MBA program, its faculty, staff, and your fellow students. The orientation occurs within a week of the start of classes. Below are two schedules for progressing through the LEHIGH MBA: first, as a part-time Professional MBA student, and second, as a full-time MBA student.
