Message from the Director - Online Graduate Business Programs
Greetings and welcome to the online business program of Saint Joseph's College of Maine
These online business programs reflect our commitment to maintain small class sizes and to provide you with highly individualized attention from your facilitators who will ensure that your cyber education is of a high quality.
In addition to a quality curriculum, you will also find the flexibility and convenience of online courses to be a very attractive option in your busy schedule. Practically all of our students work full time and many have demanding family schedules as well. Importantly, the tuition for our online degrees is very affordable - a sound investment.
We currently offer three programs that are designed to meet students' needs at important junctures in their careers.
The Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (BSBA) program is the perfect program for those seeking to advance in business, with several choices for specialization. Job knowledge is critical in the business world, and those with a desire to succeed will always be learning. A degree in business allows you to focus on the skills required to advance in any industry.
The Master of Accountancy (MAcc) program takes a strategic approach to professional development that ensures students obtain maximum value from their efforts.
Each carefully crafted course reflects the attention and expertise of professionals from the field. More specifically, the challenge for designers of a program in any industry that requires standardization and certification/licensure is to ensure that the curriculum serves students wishing to advance in their profession on two levels:
- First, by increasing your ability to apply relevant learning to current real world problems and
- Second, by meeting your certification and licensure requirements.
Our program strives to help you accomplish both aims.
For those seeking a Master of Business Administration (MBA), our Leadership MBA will provide you with a broad foundation from which to develop your capacity to lead. I would like to encourage you to peruse the content of our website to learn more about this innovative program. The value of your efforts as you progress through the program will shine through in all of your decisions and communications beyond the classroom.
Your engagement in the Leadership MBA program begins with the submission of an introspective essay, a part of your application requirements. I will personally review your essay to reflect the highly individualized attention you can expect from all of the faculty and staff at Saint Joseph's College of Maine. If you genuinely care about making a difference and cutting through to the core of what matters most, then this program may be a good fit for you.
Please review our programs against others and I think you'll find that, all things considered, the online business programs at Saint Joseph's will deliver the results that you expect from your decision to close the gap between where you are and where you would like to be.
Sincerely,
Nancy Kristiansen
