In order to achieve these expectations, the MBA-GSM program features a core curriculum that focuses students on the major disciplines of business: accounting, finance, marketing, strategic management, and organizational behavior. Core courses provide broad functional knowledge in one discipline; electives provide a narrow focus that deepens an area of study. Students can select a more generalized international area of study, or they can focus on a region.
