The MBA requires a minimum of 30 semester hours of graduate credit. Coursework will culminate a master of business administration degree with a concentration in nonprofit management. All students will enroll in the eight core courses, and in addition, students are required to complete two courses in their concentration area. The MBA at Springfield College is designed so that students may reasonably complete the degree requirements in one year. Alternatively, students may elect to complete courses at his/her own pace on a part-time basis.

Through coursework at the graduate and/or undergraduate level, or a combination of coursework and demonstrated professional experience, applicants must have a background in at least two of the following disciplines: Accounting, Finance, or Economics.
