In a diverse world where religions and cultures collide, commerce is one common denominator that unites us all. The MBA program is an adult accelerated program designed to prepare students to understand business and to become global leaders. It is important that students recognize their mission in the global market, their workplace and how that mission transforms their organization. Students will gain a better understanding of how the MBA program, particularly Business as Missions (BAM), prepares them to compete in the global marketplace.
