Description
The MBA at the University of Illinois Chicago (UIC) is a flexible and career-driven program designed for professionals who want a recognized U.S. business degree without pausing their lives or overspending. Offered by the AACSB-accredited Liautaud Graduate School of Business, the program blends academic rigor with practical, real-world skills that employers immediately value.
Students can study fully online, on campus in Chicago, or through a hybrid format, choosing the pace and schedule that best fits their goals. The curriculum includes 42 credits of core business foundations, advanced electives, and a specialization track in areas such as finance, business analytics, marketing, management, or entrepreneurship. Most students complete the degree in about 14 to 24 months, depending on their preferred workload.
Tuition is competitively priced. The Online MBA costs roughly $36,000 in total, while the Flex MBA follows a semester-based tuition model that remains cost-effective for both U.S. and international students. Despite its affordability, the program delivers strong outcomes: about 94% of graduates secure employment within six months, with an average starting salary around $101,000.
This MBA is ideal for professionals seeking upward mobility, international students wanting a reputable U.S. credential, and anyone who values flexibility, practical training, and strong return on investment. It offers the credibility of a major public research university in one of America's most dynamic business cities—without the excessive price tag of elite private programs.
