Keep Working While You Get Your MBA

WashU’s Professional MBA, the best part-time MBA program in St. Louis, teaches you to tackle the greatest challenges of our day, balance data and theory with principle and outcomes, and become a better decision-maker. You do all this while juggling your job, family and other commitments in our program designed for busy, driven professionals.

As a PMBA student, I need a flexible course offering that fits my schedule. I greatly appreciate having been able to experiment both with courses more pertaining to my interests as well as experimenting with shorter course offerings in order to experience a wider variety of topics.

—Greg Marifian, Professional MBA 2024

The Same High Standards with Greater Flexibility

Our flexible online programs have the same high academic standards, accessible professors and learning outcomes as our on-campus programs. The key difference is that you learn on your schedule. We focus on a collaborative learning environment not only among students, but also among faculty and staff.
