The MBA degree is general by nature, as it’s designed to train students for careers managing any area of business. Students typically spend the first year of business school studying a core set of courses that provide a strong foundation in accounting, finance, statistics, marketing, management, leadership and more. This ensures all graduates walk away with the same comprehensive knowledge. Offering concentrations where students can hone their skills according to their career interests is a relatively new and popular concept at many business schools.
