The W. Fielding Rubel School of Business at Bellarmine University is accredited by the AACSB International (Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business), which places it among the most elite business schools in the nation. Not only is Bellarmine the first and only private university in Kentucky to achieve AACSB accreditation, but fewer than 5 percent of business schools worldwide have achieved this distinction.
At Bellarmine University, we believe an MBA should be more than just business acumen. It's about leadership, impact, and the ability to navigate the complexities of today's world with both rigor and agility. That's why our AACSB-accredited program blends a robust core curriculum with unique liberal arts strengths, equipping you with the analytical skills, ethical grounding, and human-centered perspective to not just think, but do. Moreover, the flexibility of our program allows you to complete it virtually, in person, or through an executive track, catering to your unique needs and schedule.
