Accredited Green Business MBA Program Offered Online



There has been a good deal of interest lately in green education programs, specifically Sustainable Business MBA programs. Some months back, we published an article detailing a number of colleges who are offering green MBAs. It remains one of our most widely read articles on GreenBusinessOwner and one that produces more e-mail questions than any feature we have ever published.



As we stated in that earlier article:

"There is a demand in American business for professionals who understand the basic concepts of sustainability, corporate social responsibility, and the triple bottom line approach to commerce. Non-profit and for-profit entities alike have recognized the need for a sustainable approach to their business operations and they seek capable personnel to help them meet these challenges."

Recently, another Sustainable MBA program offered by Marylhurst University in Portland Oregon came to our attention. Marylhurst is a private, fully accredited Catholic university founded in 1893. A potential student can rest assured that a degree from Marylhurst will not have the stench of a for-profit diploma mill. This is a respected brick and mortar university with an extensive history. They also happen to offer a somewhat ground breaking on-line delivery Sustainable Business MBA program.

The Marylhurst MBA student may choose concentrate their studies in renewable energy, public policy, green development or natural and organic resources. All content delivery is via the internet using Angel software. The program can be completed in 18-24 months by taking one class at a time. Tuition at this writing is $484 per credit hour, so it is not cheap, but a student may live anywhere, maintain a career, and uphold family commitments while completing the degree.

A GMAT score may be a requirement for application, though they do offer an alternative route to acceptance for potential students with experience.

Please note that Marylhurst is not a GreenBusinessOwner.com advertiser and we are not an affiliate. We are not being compensated for this announcement in any way. This is merely a program that appears to meet the needs of a good number of our readers.

Additional information on the Marylhurst Sustainable Business MBA degree program can be found here.

Other Green Business degree options are detailed in our article Green MBA Programs.
