MBA Admissions Information Alumni TestimonialsBarb Wale
Thank you for your interest in the Bittner School of Business MBA Programs. Professional advancement within your career can sometimes be a long process. One way to drive that advancement further and faster is to consider continuing your education. A Masters of Business Administration (MBA) from St John Fisher College is one way to enhance your professional skills. The Bittner School of Business at St. John Fisher College offers two programs of study for your MBA which allow the flexibility to still work full time. The options that are offered are the Flex MBA and the One-Year MBA. These MBA programs are designed to cater to the working individual. The One-Year and Flex MBA programs are both 48 credit hour programs. Included in these courses is a hands-on consulting capstone project. The project is a field experience where students demonstrate competencies required by the business world. Clients have included large corporations, not-for-profits and educational institutions. It’s a great chance to showcase the skills you have learned through the MBA program and make business contacts within the community. The Bittner MBA program produces graduates with practical business skills and a global perspective, but more importantly, produces business leaders who can think strategically and critically, who can adapt to change and foster change, who can inspire and lead, and who can create and convey a vision. At the Bittner School we try to fortify these skills by organizing networking events throughout the year. These events are a chance for current students and alumni to create professional relationships outside the classroom. They promote stronger ties among alumni, faculty, administrators, students, and also strengthen connections with the local business community We encourage you to consider either Bittner MBA program and to join the successful graduates within our Rochester community.

My position as COO of a non-profit organization demands that I look at our agency as a system. The Fisher program reinforced and enhanced my abilities in critical analysis. My time at Fisher allows me to take that step back and ensure I ask the right questions and more importantly, get the right answers. For a prospective student the One-Year MBA is dramatic step – you must be able and willing to make sacrifices in other parts of your life. If you can, you will learn and you will increase your skills, knowledge and network. Use your time well and it will reap benefits for you.
