About the Degree and Program
Make a difference in the world! Saint Joseph's College MBA program is rooted in the liberal education that is the hallmark of Saint Joseph's College. Educating the whole person by developing both intellect and faith, SJC will prepare you to make decisions in a global or local context, considering the effects of those decisions on humanity and the environment as much as you attend to profits. Even if you choose to work in a nonprofit organization or provide community service, you will be equipped to serve with sound business principles.
