The University of Nebraska-Lincoln touts its online MBA program as one that is ideal for students wanting to earn their MBA from the comfort of their own home or office.
The 48-credit curriculum consists of 10 core classes and six electives. Not only is showing up to campus not something students have to worry about, but all classes in the online MBA are also delivered asynchronously so students only need to log on and complete course work at times that are convenient for them. On occasion, professors may schedule webinars or other virtual meetings, however, these segments are never required and are always made available for students to access afterward.
Once they are matriculated into the program, classes are delivered eight weeks at a time and students typically spend 14 hours per week per class. Students can take as many, or the least amount of classes they feel they can manage at one time and this can change from one semester to the next. This allows students to move through the program at a pace that their professional or personal lives will allow. When taking multiple classes per term, it is possible to fulfill all requirements and obtain the degree in 1.5 years, the school says. However, the average time to completion is between three and four years. Nebraska allots a total of 10 years to get it done.
Nebraska’s program is one of the larger ones with more than 960 students currently enrolled. Students can zoom through the program and complete it in about 18 months or take their time and stretch it out to a decade. But, the school says, most complete it in about three years.
