Delivered by a team of “world-class teachers” and an “accommodating” administration, the “academic experience is positive, effective, and worthwhile” at San Jose State. Academically, the program balances “a good mix of lectures, case studies, and assignment[s].” On that note, you’ll get a blend of theory and practice in the classroom, as “professors are very knowledgeable and have experience in both academics and industry.” “Teachers here are experienced in Silicon Valley trends and do their best to incorporate them into class work.” Coursework is interactive, and “discussions in class are lively, [and] periodically include [the] latest news and trends.” Friendly as well as experienced, “professors are very easily approachable and always try to correlate classroom learning with real-world problems as closely as possible.”
“Value” is another important factor in many students’ decisions to attend SJSU. A state school, SJSU has a much lower price tag than other local programs, giving prospective MBA candidates an “affordable option at a respected school,” without leaving the Bay Area. Unfortunately, like many public schools, budget cuts have affected San Jose State and there has been “an increase in tuition” in response. Core classes are offered on a cyclical schedule to ensure all students meet their requirements. Despite limitations, “the administration has been wonderful and very responsive to all concerns,” and students say the program runs efficiently.

Students Say
In the MBA for Professionals program, “classes are taught off campus” so many part-tim- ers “feel very disconnected from the SJSU student body.” Fortunately, the auxiliary facility is “centrally-located and well-equipped,” and there is plenty of parking for com- muters. While full-time cohorts are tight, socializing is more limited among part-timers, who are “very busy outside of class (since we are in an evening program, almost all of my classmates also have full-time jobs).” For most, that means a “get-in and get-out” attitude about school, and “class work outside of class is usually handled via teleconferences or face-to-face meetings when possible.”
