Master of Business Administration

Students in the iMBA program earn the same high-quality MBA degree that on-campus students have been earning for decades--but without needing to put career or family life on hold. Students achieve business mastery, gain lifelong leadership skills, and build a global network as they work alongside fellow students and faculty.

The iMBA program’s live global classrooms feature web conferencing, team projects, and personal interaction with professors during virtual office hours. The nearly 4,500 active students and 2,000+ alums in the iMBA family represent more than 90 countries and 48 states. The program was named the #1 Biggest B-School Innovation of the Decade by Poets&Quants, a leading authority on management education. The iMBA is from Gies College of Business at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, a historical land-grant public research institution founded in 1867.

iMBA students are accomplished professionals from across the globe. You’ll work closely with classmates and join a global University of Illinois alumni network that’s 470,000 strong.

Gies College of Business at the University of Illinois is an AACSB accredited and competitively ranked college by Poets and Quants, US News & World Report, and Bloomberg Businessweek.

At less than $22,500, the cost of the iMBA is by far the lowest of any major university’s online MBA.
