LEXINGTON, Ky. (Oct. 10, 2016) — The University of Kentucky's Gatton College of Business and Economics will be hosting an MBA Open House event beginning 6 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 18, in the newly renovated Gatton Building on campus. The event will be open to all students and majors interested in learning more about the full-time accelerated One Year MBA program.

The One Year MBA is an intensive, cross-disciplinary, hands-on experience. At 51 credit hours, this program is shorter and more immersive than those found at other colleges and universities. Positioned for students of all academic backgrounds, the program’s highly interactive, experiential courses cover core business functions which are highlighted in the unique built-in internship called Project Connect. Harvie Wilkinson, director of the Gatton MBA program, says that “if you want to make yourself more marketable in today's competitive job market, or if you want to expand your skill set so that you can be successful in your career, then acquiring an MBA may be an attractive option for you.”

Come out to interact and network with current MBA students in the program, alumni, faculty and staff.

The MBA Open House event will have limited spacing, so register early at www.gatton.uky.edu/MBA-RSVP.
