What If Earning a High-Quality MBA Didn't Require Putting Your Life on Hold

Most graduate programs force an impossible choice: sacrifice your life for an in-person degree, or sacrifice real human connection for a sterile online portal.

Siena's MBA rejects that compromise.

We built a program for professionals who want the tech-forward agility of modern business without losing the power of real relationships. Here, you aren't an anonymous student ID completing modules in isolation-you are part of a tight-knit, values-driven community engineered to elevate your career from day one.

So why Siena?

1. Learn From Professionals Who Know Your Goals

As a graduate business program built for career advancement, we provide graduate students with mentorship and coaching, career services and professional development opportunities. Whether you plan to stay in your current role or are pivoting careers, we'll help you understand how you can immediately apply your new skills.

2. Build a Network That Lasts Beyond Graduation

From day one, you'll have access to Siena's incredibly loyal alumni network throughout the northeast and across the globe. You'll also learn from professors who are deeply connected to companies in the area, giving you networking opportunities and professional development long after graduation.

4. What Our Students Say

"One of the main reasons I chose the Siena MBA is because from top to bottom, it was specifically designed with the full-time employee in mind. The unique hybrid model allows for easy integration for students who have demanding work schedules while still giving them the networking benefits of an in-person business degree. The dedicated support I received from administration and professors was unmatched as I navigated career changes and the challenges of the pandemic."

- Katie Nelson, MBA '23

And if those reasons weren't enough..

With Siena's flexible MBA program, you can:

  • Choose from online, early-evening and hybrid course options.
  • Complete the program in as few as 36 credits or less than one year.
  • Begin in the fall, spring, or summer.
  • Learn through hands-on projects and real business challenges.
  • Build connections with faculty, classmates and Siena alumni.
  • Develop the leadership and business skills employers are looking for.

Whether you're looking for a flexible MBA to fit your schedule or a hands-on graduate degree experience that still lets you have time for you, Siena provides the support, connections, and real-world learning experiences to help you reach your goals.
