MBA - Thematic General Business

Introduction

For students who seek a tailored approach to their degree, the MBA program at Lamar University offers a thematic concentration. The thematic concentration allows students to choose their elective courses from a list of elective courses offered in the MBA program. To develop a thematic concentration, students develop a plan of study, including courses to be taken and then submit them to the Director of the MBA program for approval. The purpose of this flexibility is to provide one concentration that can be tailored more closely to the personal and professional goals of an individual student that cannot logically be met via the other more focused concentrations. (Available to all MBA students)
