Mission: The MBA program at the University of South Florida St. Petersburg provides students with competencies, skills, and knowledge that enable them to function as successful leaders and socially responsible citizens in today’s dynamic and global business environments.  

Opportunities: An MBA from the University of South Florida St. Petersburg prepares students for a lifetime of opportunities, not just their next jobs. We understand that the right preparation involves more than functional business knowledge. Leadership skills, taught with a combination of traditional and interdisciplinary approaches along with opportunities for experiential learning and education abroad, prepare our graduates to meet the complex challenges of our ever-changing business environment.

One of a kind: The MBA program at USFSP is designed to prepare graduates for socially responsible business leadership in the global environment of the 21st Century. The AACSB-accredited program is preparing students for leadership roles with an appreciation of sustainability and environmental and social stewardship. Students are from diverse educational, cultural, and business backgrounds. The MBA program at USFSP is the only one in Florida that offers a series of MBA Essentials, an intensive program designed for students who may need some business prerequisite courses or who do not hold a recent undergraduate degree in business.
