What is the structure of the Stanford MBA Program? How long does it take to complete the Stanford MBA education?
Stanford’s MBA Program is a two-year, full-time, residential day program. It takes two years (or six academic quarters) of full-time study to complete the MBA education. The first year of the program consists primarily of general management requirements and the second year of the program is made up primarily of academic electives. You are not required to declare a major field of study to graduate from the MBA Program, but rather may choose among a wide variety of business courses to complete the degree requirements. Because of the heavy academic workload and commitment, you should not expect to work while you are enrolled.
