Overview

Sacred Heart University understands that business today isn't just across town or even across the country. It's global. Named after Jack Welch, legendary former chairman and CEO of the General Electric Company and a major innovator in the globalization of business, The John F. Welch College of Business stresses global awareness and an international perspective across the curriculum.

Sacred Heart University has been providing business education since 1965, just two years after its founding, and the MBA degree was the first graduate curriculum in SHU history. The university boasts more than 7,000 alumni with undergraduate degrees in business and more than 3,000 with graduate business degrees. 

The university's own campus in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg offers the only American-accredited MBA in north-central Europe, and it has graduated business leaders from 30 countries. Sacred Heart University MBA students can maximize their learning experience by studying abroad in a truly international community, for as little as two weeks in an intensive course or a full year studying abroad at the Luxembourg campus.

Program Features

The MBA program at the John F. Welch College of Business provides an opportunity for individuals to prepare for managerial positions in today's complex and dynamic environment, offering concentrations in accounting, finance, and management.

Our full-time, two-year MBA for liberal arts and science majors is tailored to those with non-business undergraduate degrees, providing them with domestic and foreign internships, as well as intensive classroom coursework.
