Ogden (WSU) MBA Program (Part-Time)
In cooperation with Weber State University, we offer a part-time MBA program, conveniently located in the Wattis Business Building on the Weber State University campus. Our faculty travels to the location to provide the same learning experience we offer on campus. This allows Utah State University to meet the needs of many individuals who could not otherwise complete an MBA. The classes are taught for five weeks over an eight-week timeframe and are identical in content to those offered on campus. The additional time is to be used to prepare, stay current, and complete assignments for the class. We try to schedule the programs with a two-week break between courses and try to avoid holidays. The program is offered on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 5:30 to 9:30 pm. No specialization is offered at this location.
Deadlines:
The Ogden program is a rotational program, which offers a start date every semester.

| Spring 2009 | November 1, 2008 |
| Summer 2009 | March 1, 2009 |
