Prior business course work is not required for admission into the program but must be completed prior to beginning the MBA core course for which it is required. MBA 402-Managing Financial and Physical Resources and MBA 403- Managing Information require prerequisites of GBUS 401-Financial Accounting and ECO 401-Statistics.
Additionally, an undergraduate course in Principles of Economics and proficiency in Microsoft Office® Suite, including Access, are necessary. You may enroll in these courses after your application to Lehigh's MBA program has been accepted.
Statistics courses taken the past 5 years and completed with a B or higher may be used to waive the statistics requirement. Students who have taken a statistics courses more than 5 years ago, or have not earned a B or higher, must successfully complete a proficiency examination.
