The College of Business Administration offers a comprehensive, AACSB International accredited MBA program serving both traditional and non-traditional students.
To provide greater flexibility for individuals with demanding schedules, students accepted into the MBA program may elect to take all or any portion of the program online, or with face-to-face courses at The Woodlands Center (most courses at TWC are offered in the evenings), or with face-to-face courses at the main campus in Huntsville.
As the SHSU online MBA is a recently added option, electives are limited. Core and elective courses are available to complete our MBA program entirely online; however, not all electives are available at this time. Additionally, graduate-level accounting courses are not available online at this time. Please see our current schedule of classes for our course offerings.
Students with a baccalaureate degree in business may complete the MBA in approximately one year if attending full time. However, most working students complete the program in two to three years.
A student with a non-business baccalaureate degree or a degree from an institution located outside the United States may be required to take stem (preparatory) courses. All stem courses are available online; however, some stem courses are available only in certain semesters.
All students are encouraged to communicate with the Associate Director of Graduate Studies for advisement. Please contact Stephanie Fors at busgrad@shsu.edu or 936-294-4775 for an appointment.
Sam Houston State University’s MBA is high-quality, price-competitive program. Tuition and fees vary by location and/or delivery mode. For instance, courses taken at The Woodlands Center incur a fee of $50 per credit hour. Similarly, online courses incur an additional charge of $101 per credit hour. These additional fees are offset by the convenience of taking courses online or nearer to work or home. In addition, if a student enrolls in only online courses, several other University fees are waived.
Admission requirements for the MBA are identical regardless of location or mode of delivery.
