*The sequence for students starting in the spring may be slightly different.

The following guidelines apply to core courses:

  • MBA core courses may NOT be waived.
  • Core courses do not require any prerequisites other than graduate standing
  • The core course in a functional area is usually the prerequisite for elective courses in that area
  • Core courses do not have to be taken in the exact order shown, but all core courses must be completed prior to graduation from the MBA program
