MBA Programs
The College of Management at LIU Post offers flexible, feature-rich MBA programs that support the wide-ranging individual interests and career objectives of our students. The MBA degree is recognized by every industry and provides the competitive tools necessary to succeed in dynamic environments. In recognition of the superb quality of the business education offered, all of the College of Management’s MBA and business programs are accredited by AACSB International.
Campus MBA Program
The Campus MBA Program is the flagship offering of the College of Management. Both full-time and part-time students attend the program and represent an attractive blend of professional responsibilities, ranging from senior managers to recent undergraduates just beginning their professional careers. Students come from both domestic and international backgrounds with varying ages, career and life experiences. These diversities, also reflected in our faculty, provide for an enriched learning experience, both within and beyond the classroom, and reflect the increasingly globalized world in which we live.
The Campus MBA program is a 48-credit course of study. Students with appropriate undergraduate coursework may qualify for a reduction to a 36-45 credit program.
Convenient evening classes offer great flexibility for students to pursue their degree at their own pace, on either a full-time or part-time basis. Two class sessions are offered each evening, Monday through Thursday: the first from 6:40 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. and the second from 8:40 p.m. to 10:30 p.m.
Students may also take courses in the Saturday MBA Program to either accelerate their progress, supplement their course load, or to attend classes that may be more convenient for their schedules.
For more information about the Campus MBA Program, contact the Office of Graduate Programs at 516-299-2098 or e-mail cynthia.cataudella@liu.edu.
Saturday MBA Program
This program is designed for students who prefer to take their classes on Saturdays. Most courses are scheduled for five consecutive Saturdays, from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. with a 1/2 hour lunch break. Students who wish to take Saturday-only courses can complete their MBA degree in 23 months.
If you earned a bachelor's degree in business within the past five years and maintained a B average in your business courses, you may be eligible to waive up to 12 credits in the Saturday MBA program. Please contact Cyndy Cataudella, Graduate Recruiting Manager, at 516-299-2098 to see if you qualify.
Students may also combine Saturday classes with the traditional Monday - Thursday Campus MBA Program.

The Personal Enrichment Program offers prospective non-matriculated students an opportunity to take MBA courses while they complete all application materials needed for matriculated acceptance.
