Business Foundations, Graduate Certificate


The Graduate Certificate in Business Foundations is a four-course graduate certificate which prepares students without a business undergraduate degree for the MBA program at UNC Charlotte. Successful completion of this certificate does not guarantee admission to the MBA program, but successful performance can help demonstrate academic readiness for graduate study if one’s undergraduate performance doesn’t indicate this. All courses taken in fulfillment of this certificate must be taken from UNC Charlotte; no transfer courses are accepted for credit leading to the certificate. To be considered for admission to the MBA, candidates must still apply separately to be considered based on the overall competitiveness of their application credentials.

The Graduate Certificate in Business Foundations may also prove beneficial for those considering graduate study in business in general, those without undergraduate business coursework seeking to improve their competitiveness for entry-level careers in business, and those with a general interest in developing an introductory level of business acumen.
