There are about 13 areas of specialization offered by MBA programs. Not all MBA programs offer all 13 areas of specialization.
For those with an undergraduate degree in business, a one year specialty masters degree may be more appropriate than attending a 2 year, full time MBA program.
The most common areas of specialization offered within traditional 2 year full time MBA programs are:
-
Management
-
Marketing
-
Finance
-
Accounting
-
Supply Chain and Logistics
-
Operations (Production)
-

-
Project Management–although many there are several online and local options to earn a certificate in project management
Additionally, one year specialty masters degrees in business offer many more options (areas of specialization).
