The MBA is highly sought after by professionals who are already in the market, but intend to improve their knowledge in management and business and have a deeper perception of the corporate world, as is the case of executives, managers and businessmen.
During the course, students learn the most accepted theories in the area of Administration and experience situations about management debating cases of real situations, in which professors act as mediators. In this way, they are prepared to face different situations and solve problems in their professional routine.
These are short-term courses, with a workload of at least 360 hours. Classes normally take place on Saturdays or at night, on weekdays, and distance classes must occupy a maximum of 20% of the workload.
there are several types of MBAs focusing on specific themes, such as health, agribusiness, marketing or information technology. Even being targeted at these segments, this MBA model needs to dedicate two-thirds of the workload to management and administration disciplines.
Most MBAs require a monograph as a final paper, but it is not necessary to defend it in front of a panel. At the end of the course, the student only receives a certificate with the title of specialist, instead of a diploma, as in the master's degree.
In the USA, the MBA has the weight of a master's degree, lasting 1 to 2 years. Educational institutions in Brazil adopted this name only for marketing reasons, as a way of adding value to these courses.
