The Evening & Weekend MBA Program makes the academic experience convenient and accessible for working professionals in three schedule options: Evenings, Weekends, and Flex online.
Our part-time MBA schedule options allow you to work while pursuing your education and expanding your network. Students typically complete their studies in 3 years, but can do so in as little as 2.5 years. Classes are held primarily in the fall and spring semesters, but approximately 15 elective courses are also available each summer, with other activities year round.
Evenings On Campus
Take core classes on Mondays and Wednesdays or Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m., with a 45-minute break. When you begin taking elective courses, you can choose your own class schedule from evenings, weekends, and online class offerings. A free shuttle is available from select South Bay and Peninsula locations for evening classes.

Weekends On Campus
Take core classes on Saturdays from 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. during the first three semesters in the program. There are two 15-minute class breaks and one 60-minute break for a catered lunch. When you begin taking elective courses, you can choose your own class schedule from evenings, Saturdays (10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.), and online class offerings. Easy access from freeways and airports makes the weekend option convenient, especially if you live outside the Bay Area.

Flexible Online Option
For the first half of the program, you'll take core courses online from wherever is convenient for you with a mix of live classes and on-demand content. You'll join online at a set time twice a week for about half of your coursework. The rest will be completed on your own time. When you begin taking elective courses, you can either continue to attend online or come to campus for in-person instruction. This option allows you to gain the same high-quality MBA without the commute.
Perfect for those who...
- are based around the U.S. or internationally
- are unable to commute to campus weekly
- are active military members
- travel frequently for work
- are self-motivated in a virtual/home setting
- are excited by cutting-edge classroom technology
