About This Profile

×

Every summer, the BSchools.org team updates school profiles like this one to provide a current, up to date list of schools offering online MBA programs for the upcoming academic year.

We collect the school and program data ourselves, then review the profiles for accuracy, and then send them off for final review by the school.

When the school’s representative provides feedback, we make any necessary updates and mark the profile as “Reviewed by School”.

We collect and validate the same data for every school in our database, regardless of whether or not the school is an advertiser (sponsor). Click any “sponsor” link to learn more.

Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi (TAMUCC) offers a fully online MBA with a general path or concentrations in accounting, business analytics, finance, healthcare administration, and international business. With accelerated seven-week courses, the general MBA can be completed in just 12 to 20 months, while the concentration MBAs take 12 to 24 months. Start dates land twice each in the fall, spring, and summer.

Online MBA students learn a variety of skills across all pathways, and specific skills related to the area of concentration. All MBA students learn to:

• Expand their accounting skills, delving into the application, analysis, and interpretation of financial statements
• Explore managerial economics, including the tools and information that help managers effectively make decisions
• Expand their understanding of financial analytics
• Understand organizational behavior in the context of individuals and groups, including personality, organizational politics, conflict management, employee satisfaction, outcomes, and team building
• Match the proper software tools to the management application and understand how to use computer-based technology
• Understand marketing management concepts
• Manage operations including operational design, capacity planning, quality control measures, forecasting, and international, legal, ethical, and environmental operations management

Each concentration then has its own outcomes according to the concentration courses and area of emphasis.
