One of Georgia鈥檚 premiere higher-learning institutions, Mercer University offers several business degree options on its graduate-focused Atlanta campus: a flexible evening MBA, an Executive MBA, professional MBA, virtual MBA, a master of accountancy (MAcc), and a one-year full-time MBA (the only of Mercer 鈥檚 various campuses that offers a full-time option). The school is also home to 鈥渙ne of the only pharmacy programs in the country to offer a dual MBA/PharmD degree.鈥� Mercer 鈥檚 flexible MBA is popular with local professionals, who call it 鈥淎tlanta鈥檚 most accommodating MBA program for working students.鈥� For part-timers, 鈥渃lasses meet one night a week for eight weeks, so it鈥檚 possible to take classes even when you have a full-time job and other commitments.鈥� On top of that, professors 鈥渦nderstand we work full-time and have family obligations, so the workload is moderate but challenging.鈥� How challenging is up to the student: 鈥淪ome take their time with one class per session, others overload to finish early.鈥� The full-time MBA is likewise efficient, covering business fundamentals in an intense, cohort-based program that spans less than one calendar year (though students who did not study business as an undergraduate must take additional four-week Business Foundations courses before matriculation).

Known for 鈥渁cademic excellence in finance and accounting,鈥� Mercer 鈥檚 curriculum covers business fundamentals from economics to communications. After completing the core, students take electives, including a required international business class or an overseas trip. Throughout disciplines, Mercer employs 鈥渟trong professors with real-world experience,鈥� who are able to offer an 鈥渋n-depth understanding of what we were learning in class and how it applied to the business world.鈥� On top of that, Mercer 鈥檚 鈥渟mall class size鈥� lends itself to 鈥渢eam-oriented projects and a lot of class interaction,鈥� giving students a chance to collaborate, network, and develop their communication skills. Students dole out praise for Mercer 鈥檚 鈥渆xtremely dedicated professors,鈥� who balance top-notch business skills with a true desire 鈥渢o help students succeed.鈥� In fact, 鈥渆veryone at Mercer is committed to enhancing the student鈥檚 experience.鈥� Like the faculty, 鈥渢he administrative offices are also helpful,鈥� ensuring the program runs smoothly.

Many MBA candidates at Mercer are attending the program part-time and are not looking for a new job after graduation. Instead, they plan to leverage the practical skills they鈥檝e acquired in the classroom to gain a better position and higher salary at their current job. To that end, a Mercer education is effective. One student attests, 鈥淚 was able to secure my current position prior to graduation as a direct result of my then-current graduate enrollment at Mercer. I graduated in December, have earned an 18 percent increase in salary and am currently searching for a more significant managerial position within my firm and outside.鈥�

Those in the full-time program (or looking to make a career change after completing the degree part-time) have access to the school鈥檚 Office of Career Services, which offers career counseling and workshops on r茅sum茅 preparation and interviewing, in addition to hosting career fairs on campus. (Note that career fairs are often aimed at a certain industry, like pharmacy.) While students certainly benefit from Mercer 鈥檚 鈥済ood reputa- tion鈥� in Atlanta, they say their school could improve its career-development offerings by promoting 鈥渕ore involvement from alumni,鈥� as well as 鈥渁 stronger link to the Atlanta business community.鈥�

Mercer 鈥檚 Atlanta campus is focused on graduate programs, with advanced students of medicine, education, and theology, among other disciplines, sharing 300 tree-filled acres inside the Atlanta Perimeter. The business school attracts students from 鈥渄iverse age ranges and backgrounds,鈥� as well as at different points in their careers. In the evening programs, 鈥淢BA students are mostly part-time students with full-time jobs (and some are effectively full-time students with full-time jobs).鈥� As a result, there is 鈥渓ittle emphasis on social or extracurricular activities鈥�; for most, 鈥渟chool life consists of classes, group project meetings and studying.鈥� Nonetheless, Mercer 鈥檚 emphasis on collaboration means students frequently work together and build relationships, even if they don鈥檛 socialize outside of class.

For full-timers, 鈥淢ercer is a thriving campus during the day,鈥� offering students access to myriad clubs and activities, as well as recreational facilities and fitness classes. At the business school, there are frequent career-related special events, like guest speakers and alumni networking events, as well as 鈥渇estivities such as a 鈥渃ook outs鈥� (free to students) to celebrate the end of the semester.鈥� 鈥淭he library and the library鈥檚 website are also great resources for research,鈥� and students appreciate the 鈥渘ice meeting rooms available for students to reserve in order to study, work on projects, [and] have meetings.鈥� Plus, the school鈥檚 鈥渟uburban campus鈥� offers a central Atlanta location that is both 鈥渙utstanding and safe.鈥�
