返回新鲜资讯Back to News

The University of Chicago Booth School of Business has launched a new Master in Management program for Fall 2024, designed specifically for recent graduates from non-business backgrounds (such as liberal arts or STEM majors). The program is only ten months long, aiming to help students quickly grasp business operations, market trend analysis, and decision-making skills. The curriculum consists of five core required courses including data analytics and financial accounting, and allows students to choose one of five concentrations—analytics, entrepreneurship, finance, marketing, or strategic management—to complete four elective courses, balancing foundational knowledge with personalized development. In terms of admissions, the program requires applicants to have a quantitative background, and submit transcripts, GRE/GMAT scores, two letters of recommendation, essays, and pass an interview. It is suitable for students looking to transition into business. Graduates have broad career prospects, entering fields such as data analysis, investment management, consulting, marketing, general management, and more, with employers ranging from corporations to government agencies and financial institutions. CheersYou(清柚教育) advises interested students to plan quantitative coursework early and keep an eye on application timelines.
