Master of Business Administration Graduate Certificate

12-Credit Graduate Certificate, Full- and Part-time online

Customize your path forward.

No matter your interest, Lesley’s MBA Graduate Certificate helps you develop the necessary leadership and management skills to elevate your career and fulfill your professional goals and passions. 

Designed with input from successful Lesley alumni who are business leaders and entrepreneurs in their fields, this 12-credit (4-course) certificate fits well within Lesley undergraduates’ 120 credit requirement with the opportunity to finish the full MBA program in only one year post-graduation. 

The MBA certificate incorporates Lesley case studies and utilizes the Harvard case method, providing a hands-on, customized approach to learning. A self-directed capstone project will allow you to work on a case study of your choice that aligns with their interests, receiving valuable support from faculty and librarians, as well as alumni actively working in your chosen field. 

You’ll gain foundational business skills specifically tailored to your interests and goals, and fast-track your progress towards Lesley’s full MBA program (should you choose to continue your studies). Courses include: 

  • Leading and Managing in the 21st Century 

  • What Outstanding Organizations Do Differently 

  • Managerial Economics and Finance 

  • Technology and Operations Managment 

The MBA certificate will be launching this fall (2025) and is currently available to Lesley students who have completed their second year of undergraduate studies, as well as to Lesley alumni who have earned their undergraduate degree. 

Learn about additional scholarship opportunities through the Double Lynx Scholarship for Lesley students and graduates.
