The Whitman School of Management MBA program at Syracuse University is a traditional full-time, two-year MBA program with summers dedicated to completing an industry internship. Many MBA students enter the program with significant full-time work or internship experience and may opt out of the internship to take courses, condensing the program to 16 months. Areas of concentration from which students may select include accounting, entrepreneurship, finance, marketing management, and supply chain management. Four specialized Master's programs are also offered - MS in Accounting, MS in Entrepreneurship, MS in Finance, and MS in Media Management. An online MS in Supply Chain and an MS in Accounting are also offered. The School also hosts a number of executive programs throughout the year.
