Master of Business Administration with Concordia University Chicago

The College of Business offers an MBA designed and taught by business leaders and educators to prepare ethical leaders for the global marketplace. Our MBA students are empowered to create their own leadership story to lay a path for their future. Courses are taught by passionate and experienced professors who care about their students. Small classes allow for classroom relationship building with peers and faculty that help build a network that will last a lifetime. Students can finish their program with an MBA or choose to add a specialization. The degree track is flexible yet rigorous to accommodate students while preparing them for today’s business world and that of tomorrow.

Our Mission The mission of the College of Business is to develop ethical leaders who think critically, communicate effectively and promote socially responsible business practice that is grounded in Christian faith, and is innovative, and entrepreneurial in spirit. We strive to prepare students who positively impact the global society they serve through an academically rigorous and relevant business education.

Our Vision We seek to be a globally recognized Christian-based business college that creates authentic, innovative leaders who transform the lives and organizations they serve.

Our Values As part of a university that values Christian faith, the individual, excellence, integrity and service, the College of Business at Concordia University Chicago values our Lutheran heritage of teaching

excellence, leading by serving, innovative and entrepreneurial thinking, ethical decision making, intellectual and individual diversity and sustaining a dynamic curriculum based on the needs of our students, community and stakeholders.

Program Objectives Students will use the following four pillars to make excellent decisions in a global environment of complex problems and situations:

• Ethics & Social Responsibility
• We go beyond offering one course in ethics. We integrate ethics and social responsibility throughout our course work. This is a distinct advantage. Leaders must understand how the success of their organizations is inextricably linked with broader ethical and social issues, not only within their local community but also on a global scale. We prepare business students to serve and lead with integrity, demonstrating ethical and social responsibility to their community, organization, country, and the planet.
• Critical Thinking & Entrepreneurial mind set
• The themes of critical thinking and entrepreneurial mind set are threads within the curriculum that will help you develop a career advantage. We believe it is vital that students possess the ability to develop an entrepreneurial mind set to solve business problems. We believe that with a solid foundation of critical and creative thinking skills, students can learn to think entrepreneurially whether they plan to start their own business, work within a family-owned business, or climb the corporate ladder. The ability to think critically and creatively, in order to evaluate opportunity, manage risk, and learn from outcomes is integral to sustaining success.
• Communication & Human Relations

We believe that preparing for a career in business goes beyond learning functional business skills. We are committed to your journey as you prepare to be an ethical leader and learn how to communicate with those inside and outside your day-to-day business environment. We design our program into a cohort system so you can begin and end your program with the same group of people. This will help you form strong bonds with your fellow students as well as professors.

• Global Interconnectedness & Inclusiveness
• We believe that embracing diversity and promoting inclusivity in all forms supports good organizational practice and decision-making. While global business is reflected in the curriculum, the diversity of our student body is a better representation of our understanding and commitment to global interconnectedness. With students from fourteen different countries, the College is a global marketplace. Our partnerships with academic institutions and multinational corporations across the globe extend our reach well beyond the borders of Chicago, the Midwest, and the United States.

Students will develop skills to allow them to effectively communicate in a variety of situations, including but not limited to:

• Group work and presentation format
• Written and technology based forums

Students will develop management and leadership skills, including:

ü  Use social structure around them to identify opportunities to create value, mobilize resources and organize to deliver successful results.

ü  Manage and lead through high performance teams, corporate culture, strategic change, informal organization and across business units.

ü  Assess influences of globalization and diversity.
