The MBA covers all the fundamentals of business including economics, marketing, management, and accounting. The theme of the MBA program is social impact. Many businesses want to make a positive impact on their community, thus the theme of social impact is woven into several of the courses and is featured in the first class, social responsibility for managers. In this course students learn about socially responsible investing, environmental sustainability, and diversity equity and inclusion in human resource decision making. In other courses, students utilize technology and learn the fundamental skills necessary to be successful at businesses large and small as well as starting their own business.

"I chose the Mount because I loved the small intimate feel and I knew I wanted to participate in the 4+1 MBA program. So many people throughout the MSJ community have impacted me throughout my time here. The one person who has really changed me for the better is Sister Karen. She has always given me amazing advice, rooted for me not only as a athlete but as a student, and was kind to me every time she saw me! I am forever grateful for her and the impact she has had on my life! I would rate my educational experience at the Mount as phenomenal! I am beyond grateful for everyone I’ve met and everything I’ve learned at the Mount and it will forever be home!" Aliyah Huff MBA '22
