Master of Business for Veterans

Thank you for your interest in the USC Marshall Master of Business for Veterans (MBV). The MBV degree was created specifically for military veterans, active military and active duty military, who wish to gain formal business knowledge and develop critical thinking skills to manage or grow a business and discover the transferability of military experience and skill sets.

The program is two semesters in length (25 units), and provides understanding of business including accounting and financial management, marketing and operations knowledge, effective strategies for growing and sustaining organizations, and the development of leadership and management approaches to effective organizations. The 16 full day classroom sessions each semester involve students in an interactive learning environment with a relatively small cohort of participants within the Marshall School of Business world-class facilities and support activities. Class sessions meet Fridays and Saturdays over the two semesters with minimal interruption to the careers of working professionals.

The decision to pursue the intensive MBV degree is both an exciting and a transformational experience. We hope that the information contained on this site will provide you with the insight you will need to make a highly informed decision about whether or not Marshall is the right business school for you.
