Same MSBA offerings, Shorter Time
The program provides candidates with the opportunity to earn our MSBA degree in just one year of study. Brandeis students may apply to the BA/MSBA program beginning in their sophomore year after successfully completing the Statistics prerequisite with a minimum grade of "B" in the course.
Practical Learning
The curriculum combines graduate business coursework and practical learning in business and analytics. This provides students with expanded knowledge across both subjects. Students also have access to our expansive Bloomberg Lab for financial modeling and data analysis.
STEM-Designated
Study in a program that lets international students extend a 12-month post-graduate practical training experience by an additional 24 months. Learn more.
Supportive Community
Contact our MSBA ambassadors with any questions about the student experience. Current students, staff and faculty are all here to support you in your journey to become a graduate of the International Business School.
Curriculum requirements for the BA/MSBA program are identical to those of the 12-month or 16-month MSBA program.
Students in this program begin graduate level coursework in their senior year before they graduate with their undergraduate degree. They transfer 8-9 credits from their BA or BS to the MSBA, but are able to take additional graduate courses in their senior year. Students work closely with the MSBA Program Advisor to review their academic goals and to develop individual curriculum plans based on the undergraduate coursework they've completed. Students then complete the remaining 32 credits in two graduate semesters.
Undergraduate Equivalencies
Students who have taken undergraduate courses that are equivalent to graduate requirements may transfer these courses or be exempt from these requirements if they have met the maximum transfer limit.
