Executive MBA Program

The Culverhouse College of Business Executive MBA (EMBA) Program at The University of Alabama realizes that today’s business professionals pursuing an MBA must juggle their education, social and family life, and an ever-growing work schedule. To aid in this work-school-life balance, the EMBA Program at UA now offers a convenient blended-instruction format for earning the MBA at our Huntsville or Tuscaloosa locations. At both branches, you experience an evenly split between in-class sessions and weekly interactive online classes. With in-class sessions scheduled one weekend a month, you have the opportunity to embrace the academic challenge without affecting your work and personal obligations.
