Full-Time MBA

The Rady Full-Time MBA provides the fundamental business knowledge needed to succeed in innovation-driven industries. A unique aspect of the Rady MBA is the Lab to Market course sequence where students apply core business school disciplines to hands-on projects focused on the idea generation, business planning and commercialization of new business opportunities.

Professionals with careers in science and technology, often with advanced degrees, develop a thorough understanding of management and leadership in a global environment, and build on this with a curriculum focused on business realities and critical needs for organizations driven by innovation. The program combines a solid core, an integrative course sequence focused on innovation, a strong elective curriculum and a commitment to leadership development. The Rady MBA program also provides students with a unique immersion in the region's cutting-edge science and technology sectors via close interaction with world renowned faculty, recognized industry leaders, and Rady alumni. The Full-Time MBA program is 21 consecutive months, with most students completing an internship between the first and second year.
