Message from the Dean
Welcome to the website of the Oregon M.B.A. I encourage you to learn more about the program and its home, the Lundquist College of Business. We’re proud to be an integral part of the University of Oregon, the state’s flagship liberal arts institution and a member of the A.A.U., the prestigious association of 62 leading research universities in the United States and Canada.
Educational excellence at LCB rests on four pillars:
-
The integration of liberal arts strengths--critical thinking, concise writing, research expertise, and the ability to see the world through the eyes of others--with the cross-functional study of business;
-
A faculty committed to advancing business knowledge through outstanding research and to propagating the understanding of business through exceptional teaching;
-
A learning environment that promotes experiential, team-based education through the most advanced physical and technological infrastructure;
-
Experiential learning in partnership with industry that affords students numerous opportunities to apply classroom learning.
What does that mean specifically for anyone interested in the Oregon M.B.A. program?
-
Centers of excellence in entrepreneurship, securities analysis, sports marketing, and sustainable business practices that function as transmitters between disciplinary research and the interdisciplinary experience of the business community in Oregon and beyond;
-
Four distinct curricular tracks in innovation/entrepreneurship, securities analysis, sports business, and sustainable business practices that are served by their respective centers;
-
A rigorous core curriculum that provides the foundation for the center-focused electives in the first and second year;
-
A leadership program that emphasizes critical thinking, ethical decision-making, and professional skills, such as cross-cultural competency, effective team work and communication;
-
Hands-on consulting, internships, special projects, and networking opportunities with the centers' industry partners;
-
Instructors with impressive research and clinical credentials who take great personal interest in their students;
-
Classes that are small, diverse, collaborative, and close-knit;
-
Students with differing undergraduate and work backgrounds as well as Oregon values: concern for community and environment; belief in active, balanced life-styles; commitment to innovation and entrepreneurial initiative.
If these strengths appeal to you, then Oregon and the Oregon M.B.A. are for you. We look forward to your inquiries, visit, and application.
