The College of Business (COB) at Idaho State University (ISU) offers a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree to holders of business and non-business bachelor's degrees. The MBA program is accredited by AACSB International, the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. In addition to the traditional MBA degree, the program offers MBA degrees with emphasis areas in Accounting, Athletic Administration, Informatics, Finance, Health Care Administration (HCA), Project Management, and Marketing. The MBA program at Idaho State University was the first to be accredited by the AACSB in the State of Idaho and remains committed to the delivery of a high-quality, rigorous program. The traditional MBA provides a broad general degree particularly suited to those pursuing a managerial focus in their careers. The Accounting, Athletic Administration, Informatics, Finance, Health Care Administration, Project Management, and Marketing options provide specialized knowledge relating to their respective fields. The Accounting emphasis meets the needs of students who wish to satisfy requirements for certification as public accountants (CPA) or certification as management accountants (CMA). In the interest of a more diverse student body, the college encourages and attracts a number of full-time students from other parts of the United States and foreign countries.
