The Penn State Smeal College of Business is adding a dynamic hybrid MBA to its portfolio of graduate programs. Scheduled to launch in Fall 2025, prospective students are now able to apply for consideration for admission in the inaugural class.
The Smeal Hybrid MBA offers the ideal blend of best-in-class virtual learning with the invaluable networking and social structure of an in-person cohort program, on a schedule designed for working professionals.
Programs like this are sometimes referred to as a part-time MBA, but what sets the Smeal degree apart is more than just time commitment. Students will participate in live, remote synchronous virtual classes on evenings and weekends and attend in-person residency sessions at Penn State’s University Park campus at the start of each semester. This powerful combination allows students to learn on a convenient schedule while also developing lasting relationships with peers and professors.
The hybrid MBA is a part of Smeal’s ongoing commitment to delivering high-quality, innovative educational opportunities to professionals at all stages of their careers. To learn more or apply, visit the Smeal Hybrid MBA website.
Applications are being accepted now, with the first cohort set to begin in fall semester 2025.
