The Ageno School is ideal for working adults seeking to improve their lives. Undergraduate and graduate degrees and certificates are offered in the most highly demanded business, technological, nonprofit and governmental areas including accounting, finance, human resource management, information technology management, integrated marketing communications, management, marketing, public relations, operations and supply chain management, psychology and public administration. Our programs will open the door to new career opportunities that will help you achieve your life goals.
Through intensive case studies, in-depth study of business, nonprofit, and public management concepts and practical application, your degree program at the Ageno School of Business will give you the hands-on knowledge and effective skills that can make an immediate difference on the job.
Business and governments evolve, and so do we. The programs we offer are constantly updated to reflect current trends and practices, giving you the most relevant know-how.
For example, our long time leadership in accounting has allowed us to meet the extraordinary growth in demand at the undergraduate and graduate levels. In our MA in psychology degree program, we have two new concentrations: one that combines marriage and family therapy with industrial/ organizational psychology, and one that combines counseling and industrial/organizational psychology.
Technology and technology governance have become integral to business strategy and operations. This increasing integration of business and information technology requires flexible professionals who can understand as well as manage the wide range of technology issues and tools that drive the contemporary enterprise.
In our information technology management program we have met the convergence of technology and business by offering an undergraduate degree and a master’s degree. These degrees in information technology management offer you the opportunity to gain expertise in the interrelated areas of information technology, network and telecommunications development, application development and management. The MS in information technology management degree embraces the convergence of people, business and information technologies by giving you a broad managerial focus on the full range of IT architecture, infrastructure, platforms and applications in use today.
Consistent with our focus on business-professional education, we also offer the only doctoral program for working professionals in the Bay Area.
We also encourage you to participate in appropriate internship programs as a way to bring more professionally focused practice into your educational experience. By the time you graduate, you can be sure that you will have the needed preparation and confidence to succeed.
We recognize that with your busy life schedule, time is valuable. To meet the demanding schedules of working professionals, classes are offered in the evenings, on weekends, totally online, or a combination of online and in person. Students are also encouraged to bring work projects into the classroom or cyber-discussion rooms for in-depth analysis and exchange, for the opportunity
to receive assistance from peers and a fresh perspective on the issues faced daily.
We offer our BA, BBA, BS, MBA, MS, MA, professional MBA, executive MBA, MPA and MPA-JA programs at various teaching sites throughout Northern California; our BA in management and BS in information technology, BBA, EMPA, MBA and MS programs conveniently online; and the 12-month executive MBA program is offered on weekends.
The executive master of public administration program has been expanded to the San Francisco and Silicon Valley sites and it can be completed in as little as 18 months; and the MS in human resource management can now be completed in one year at the San Francisco and Silicon Valley locations.
We now offer a BA in management and BS in information technology management that allow you to maximize the number of credits you can transfer to help promote efficient degree completion, while acquiring the core set of essential management skills needed by today’s working professional.
