NGCSU + MBA = Career Success

If you've been in the working world for any span of time, you know there is no magic formula that will give you instant career success.

But, earning an MBA - particularly one from North Georgia - can give you the skills and tools you need to achieve the success you want in your professional life.

How?

Proven Leadership Training
North Georgia has a history of developing outstanding leaders. We're the Military College of Georgia and a state-designated leadership institution. If you want to take advantage of more leadership opportunities in your career, you don't have to go to Atlanta, or even to Dahlonega. You can learn from proven citizen and military professors right here at the Cumming Graduate Center, close to home.

Integrated Teamwork
You don't work by yourself. In fact, you probably serve on several teams in your current work. North Georgia's MBA program takes a team-based approach so that you develop the skills you need to be an effective part of a team. You'll move through the program with a cohort of students and have opportunities to work in groups for all classes, including the Capstone project. Our purpose in integrating so many team-based projects is to help you develop interpersonal skills and practice leadership techniques that will help your teams work more productively.

Global Learning Opportunities
We are part of a global economy. Your MBA education would be incomplete without a focus on global business. North Georgia's MBA program enhances your global perspective by including global topics in each of your classes, not just those in international management. We also offer International Experience courses, so you can spend time outside the U.S. learning business practices from leaders in international companies, as well as picking up a bit of language and culture.

Career Support Services
You had a career goal in mind when you applied to business school. Talk with North Georgia's Career Services office and create a plan to make that goal a reality. Career Services will help you with self-assessment, career preparation and coach you through making decisions about your career.

North Georgia also offers a wealth of networking opportunities. Our alumni are scattered far and wide across the globe in both military and civilian professions. Networking with our alumni is a great way to learn from their experience and plan for your own professional success. Our MBA program also hosts several information sessions and events that allow you to meet our current MBA students and our recent MBA graduates, so you can ask questions about the program and begin networking before you ever take the first class!
