Online Master of Business Administration in E-Business
The rise of electronic business is changing the way traditional
firms operate and structure their organizations. The dynamics of
e-Business have also required companies to compete in innovative
ways, as well as opened the doors of opportunity for creating global
businesses. To accommodate the emerging e-Business marketplace,
the University of Phoenix offers a comprehensive MBA/e-Business
program to equip managers with the necessary skills to conduct business
in an e-Business environment.
The MBA/e-Business
program is designed to meet the needs of a broad but unique population--the
working adult manager or supervisor who could benefit from a graduate
business education. The program requires a practical background
in business, and the successful candidate will have at least three
years of relevant experience.
The various
components of the program--curriculum, learning resources, and
faculty--have been selected to produce specific outcomes. These
outcomes, while reflecting contemporary academic practice, also
focus on the functional competencies required of working managers.
Thus, the MBA program emphasizes the identification, analysis,
and solution of complex management problems that require technical
understanding and balanced decision making. Although a functional
knowledge of economics, accounting, finance, quantitative analysis,
and management underlies the program, equal attention is given
to the development of report writing, oral reporting, Internet
research, and group process skills.
