Work And Graduate School Do Mix With An Online MBA

The program, which centers around energy issues and managing food

, water, energy and raw materials resources, is intended to advance students' leadership and business management skills while instilling in them a strong knowledge of sustainability challenges and practices throughout the world.

"We believe that in the 21st Century organizations will have two CEOs - a Chief Executive Officer and a Chief Energy Officer," Franklin Pierce Assistant Professor Dr. Michael Mooiman said. Mooiman noted that the institution's new MBA provides graduates with the skills, knowledge and credentials that can enable them to lead in either position. The new Franklin Pierce University MBA is also one of a growing number of specialized advanced degree programs. Since 2005, Arizona State University alone has added 25 new masters degree programs, according to a December article in the New York Times.

More students are reportedly moving on to masters degree programs immediately after earning their undergraduate degrees. Some attribute the continued education is a sign of the economic times and high unemployment rates. Continued studies toward a masters degree also allows students to remain on their parents' health insurance while they work to enhance their credentials and their own future income potential, Franklin Pierce School of Business and Management Dean Ilene Bezjian noted.

Many freshmen, however, are enrolling in colleges and universities with the intent of entering careers and becoming well off, a 2009 Cooperative Institutional Research Program study at the Higher Education Research Institute at UCLA suggests - and they say they plan to work toward the graduate degrees that can help them achieve that.
