This program can be completed in five years along with a Bachelor\u2019s degree from the Oregon Center for the Arts at Âé¶¹´«Ã½ (Art, EMDA, Creative Writing, Music, or Theatre) or other arts-related course of study.

We offer our students the added benefits of small class sizes in a cohort system, which means you begin the MBA program with a group of students and continue throughout the program with those same students. Working in a cohort-based program has proven incredibly rewarding and has many advantages for developing future business leaders. The MBA program is accredited through the Northwest Commission of Colleges and Universities and the Accreditation Council for Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP).<\/p>\n
