Typical MBA Week
The MBA program at Idaho State University is demanding and requires students to manage a rigorous schedule. Most MBA students juggle school, work, and family activities.
To accommodate the schedules of those students that work full or part-time jobs, MBA classes are held in the evenings Monday through Thursday from approximately 6:00 pm to 8:45 pm.
