 During your final four quarters in the FEMBA Program, you will choose from a variety of electives spread across different business areas designed to help you succeed in your career. Electives at the Merage School will enable you to tailor your MBA program specifically to your interests and career goals. You can specialize in any functional area such as marketing, finance, real estate or strategy. Or, you can take elective courses in several different areas.
Between 35 and 45 electives are offered throughout the year to FEMBA students in the evenings (Monday-Thursday, 7-9:50pm) and also on Saturday (mornings or afternoons). If your schedule permits and seats are available, you may also request enrollment in electives offered through our other MBA programs (Full-Time, Executive and Health Care MBA). This option opens up a broader array of choices and allows FEMBA students to interact with MBA students in other programs.
