Penn State Great Valley will be offering a part-time, accredited MBA program from its faculty at the Navy Yard in Philadelphia starting in the fall next year, according to a staff report from Penn State News.

The evening MBA program assists students to think strategically, solve problems, innovate, and improve their communication skills. The course integrates key areas of business, such as finance, accounting, marketing, leadership, organizational behavior, and human resources.

“With 13,000 employees at the Navy Yard that represent a wide range of companies and industry sectors, we’re thrilled to have the opportunity to deliver the Penn State Great Valley MBA program at this exciting location,” said PSGV Chancellor James Nemes.

Other master’s-degree and certificate courses are also available, including systems engineering, distributed energy and grid modernization, and project management.

More information about learning opportunities at the Navy Yard will be available during the campus’s open house on Thursday, Nov. 3 from 5-7 PM.
