Saint Louis University's One-Year MBA is a 48-credit-hour analytics-driven curriculum. Each cohort starts in June, taking 18.5 credits of integrated MBA courses during the summer. Students complete 14 credits in the fall term and 15.5 hours in the spring.
Summer courses equip students with foundational business concepts and theories to prepare them for team-based business simulations in the fall semester. Between the fall and spring terms, students study abroad for one week.
The fall and spring semesters include a live, team-based data analytics consulting project in which students work with local corporations or nonprofit organizations. Each student spends time each week with business partners analyzing data collaboratively and delivering real solutions to data-intensive problems. Spanning nine months, this practicum experience provides support and additional training from a faculty mentor and allows students to utilize the skills they have developed during the previous semesters.
