Philosophy and Framework

Philosophy

The Molloy University Mission Statement establishes the framework for the Master's Program in Business. It states that in an environment where academic freedom, a spirit of inquiry and respect for each individual’s worth and dignity prevail, students acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to meet the challenges of modern life. The MBA Program builds on Molloy’s Catholic and Dominican tradition. Graduate education fosters a high level of scholarly inquiry for expansion of knowledge, self-enrichment, and achievement of personal and professional goals. The School of Business is committed to the preparation of knowledgeable, creative, and effective business leaders.

The School of Business believes it has four key competitive strengths:

  • A talented faculty that features an ideal blend of experienced educators and highly credentialed and highly successful business leaders
  • State of the art Wall Street Trading Room with multiple Bloomberg terminals
  • Small class size that leads to personalized instruction
  • Quality faculty advisement

The MBA program prepares students to perform with distinction in their professional careers.
