4 First in Turkey! The HBX Program Get an Early Start! This year, in collaboration with Harvard Business School, we offer participants the opportunity to make an early start to the program by taking courses in the summer. Early applicants (apply by the early application deadline) can take advantage of the HBX CORe program offered by Harvard Business School. The HBX CORe gives you the chance to brush up on your quantitative skills before the program starts. It consists of a package of 3 online courses (Business Analytics, Economics for Managers and Financial Accounting) that start in June and last for 9 weeks. If you pass the courses with honors or high honors, you will be exempt from the Business Statistics and Financial Accounting courses in our MBA program.

5 Tracks For Different Interests The OzU MBA offers 3 tracks catering to different goals and interests: a general MBA track with functional concentration areas and 2 sector-focused specializations in Retail and Real Estate, respectively. The General MBA track caters more to the generalist and to those who wish to specialize in a functional area. Students in this track can focus on a particular functional such as marketing, finance, operations and management organization if they choose to do so. The sector-focused specializations in Retail and Real Estate, on the other hand, are tailored for those who wish to deepen their knowledge in a particular sector. Each track is tailored to the needs of different groups. No matter which alternative you choose, the OzU MBA offers you an unparalleled combination of quality, flexibility, choice, convenience and value. Curriculum The OzU MBA program consists of five 8-week modules and two 4-week summer mini-modules. Each regular module consists of 3 courses, while summer minimodules consist of 2 courses each. Classes are held during weekday evenings at our central locations (Swiss Hotel and Altunizade premises) so that the program does not interfere with your work. All admitted students go through a oneweek pre-term which is full-time and will be held at our Çekmeköy campus. Attendance to the pre-term is mandatory and part of the graduation requirements. The pre-term features a welcome reception, social events, team building exercises and a series of workshops designed to build your managerial skills such as negotiation, team work and business communication. These workshops count towards program credits. The orientation is followed by a common integrated core consisting of 10 courses, which aims at providing a strong foundation in various areas of business. Students from all tracks take these courses together. This increases the diversity in the classroom, exposes you to different perspectives and enhances peer to peer learning. The core is followed by a total of 9 electives (and/or area courses) that are customized for each track that allows participants to construct a program tailored to their individual goals and interests. All tracks entail a Capstone Project which provides participants with an opportunity to apply many of the concepts and skills they gain in the program.
