Jumpstart your career with our AACSB-accredited one-year MBA program

Our program is designed for students seeking to transition into new careers. Students choose to specialize or earn a general management degree, so you can tailor your learning toward the career you want.

Why pursue your MBA at Bryant?

• Complete your degree in one year of full-time study: Program runs August to August.
• Travel abroad to put classroom lessons to the test.

• Build your professional network through cohort-based learning and alumni connections.

Global specializations

You'll have an opportunity to specialize in one of four areas: Business Analytics, Global Finance, Global Supply Chain Management, or International Business. If you prefer, you may combine electives for a General Management option.

In January, you'll participate in the Global Immersion Experience, during which you and your classmates will travel abroad, and meet with senior executives at international firms and/or governmental policymakers. Previous years' students have traveled to Chile, Panama, China, and most recently to Germany.

The cohort/study team difference

All Bryant One-Year MBA students are members of a cohort, moving through the entire program with the same group of students. This community of peers will offer support and encouragement and will become the foundation of your professional network.

What must my application include?

In addition to the application form, you will need to submit a statement of objectives, current resume, one faculty recommendation, official transcripts from all colleges/universities you have attended, your official score on the GMAT, and your application fee (waived for Bryant alumni). Our GMAT waiver policy is available here.

Are there any special requirements for international applicants?

In addition, your transcripts from colleges/universities outside the U.S. must be translated into English and converted to a 4.0 scale. **Finally, if you will be seeking an I-20, you will need to submit a completed International Student Certification of Finances.
