Its unique access to Latin America is a huge selling point for The School of Business Administration at the University of Miami, which offers a One-Year and Two-Year MBA program, as well as four Executive MBAs and Professional MBA. Both the One-Year and Two-Year programs are lockstep (only the Two-Year offers concentrations), and the Professional MBA offers 鈥渆asy logistics to attend class for working professionals.鈥 The curriculum is 鈥渨ell-structured and [has] good balance between all the different concentrations,鈥 albeit 鈥渧ery fast-paced with lots of material and a moderate to heavy reading load. Though the programs are extremely career-focused, a wide range of electives is offered so that students who come to UM without specific objectives might find their paths, and the powers that be are 鈥渃reative in the development of new programs that help the university expand and attract top talent.鈥
Professors here are 鈥渨ell-established, knowledgeable, and willing to help,鈥 鈥渁re experts in their field,鈥 and 鈥渉ave very high standards for student performance.鈥 鈥淎s long as you put forth the effort, you can pass but you will only excel if you really put your mind to it,鈥 advises a student.
