The Start of Summer 2012
The FEMBA Program Office is gearing up for the start of summer! While our Section A and B students (who start in the Fall) have a summer vacation, our Section C students (who start in the Spring) are enjoying their brief week off before returning to class next Monday, June 25. This year, numerous Section A and B students are opting to take advantage of the summer session in order to either accelerate their MBAs or take a quarter off in the near future (and still graduate on time). We find many FEMBA students prefer taking courses over the summer because of the flexibility that affords them later in the program.
Below is a sample of course offerings in Summer 2012:
- Statistics for Management
- Financial Accounting for Management
- Global Negotiations
- Corporate Strategy
- Business Law
- Marketing Research
We invite you to learn more about the FEMBA Program Schedule by visiting this link. If you have previously attended a FEMBA Admissions Event, started an application, or worked with Admissions staff, you are welcome to experience a FEMBA class. To schedule a class visit, please contact: Melanie Coburn, Associate Director of Admissions, at mcoburn@uci.edu.
