Evening & Weekend MBA Program
Making Life Easier
Your Life. Your MBA.
It can be challenging to integrate a rigorous MBA program into a schedule stretched thin by the demands of a full-time job, family life, and outside commitments. But, it can be done. The Haas community is here to help you achieve your goal.
The Evening & Weekend MBA program at UC Berkeley works with you to minimize the pressures an MBA program can add to your life, without sacrificing the quality of your top-level education. From convenient scheduling options and world-class facilities to transportation alternatives and catered lunches, the staff and faculty at Haas help you successfully incorporate the Evening & Weekend MBA program into your busy life.
Regardless of which schedule option you choose, the Evening & Weekend MBA Program has been designed to ease the pressures experienced by employed students. The Haas staff minimizes administrative details and provides services that allow you to focus on your MBA:
- All class registration is done through the Evening & Weekend MBA Program office.
- Books and course materials are given to students on the first day of class, and the cost is included in the program's tuition.
- For students who must miss a class when away on business, most classes can be videotaped and made available for on-line viewing.
- Students are provided with a Haas e-mail account to facilitate communication with faculty, staff, and other students.
- Free parking is provided for students who drive to campus or the program's Silicon Valley facility.
- Complimentary shuttle bus service transports evening students from the South Bay and Peninsula.
If you ever have any questions or concerns, the program office is open in the evenings and on Saturdays to serve you.
