اريد جامعه لدرجة الماجستير في Project Management

We offer an MBA with the option to concentrate in one of the following areas: Finance, Marketing, Management, Global Business, Health Care, and Entrepreneurship.

Program
All students complete a 36-semester hour program. In addition, there are up to six prerequisites courses (The Foundation Core), any or all of which may be required of students who did not have *****alent courses in their undergraduate program. MBA students choose the pace at which they complete the program; if you just need the 36-hour program and take two classes each semester (Fall, Spring, Summer), you could complete the program in two calendar years. If you need all six prerequisite courses plus the core 36 hours, you could complete the program in three calendar years at a part-time pace. Full-time students can complete the program in 1-2 years. Most classes are offered from 7:10-9:55 pm, one night weekly. We also have a small selection of courses offered from 4:10-6:55 pm.

Admissions
Our admission requirements are listed on the Internet at http://business.up.edu via the Pamplin School of Business link or the Graduate School link. The basic requirements are 500 GMAT, 570 TOEFL or IELTS (230 CAT TOEFL, 88 iBT, 7.0 IELTS), 3.00 undergraduate GPA on a four-point scale, two recommendation letters, a statement of goals and an application ($50 application fee). In addition, we prefer that applicants have two years of full-time work experience before entering the program. For the 2008-2009 academic year, classes cost $820 per credit hour. All of our classes are three credit hours, and students' programs range in length from 36 to 54 semester hours. The cost of books averages approximately $100 per class (as a rough estimate!).

Dear Faisal,

Although we are pleased that you wish to continue your study at Portland State, please note that your GPA is below the minimum requirement for admission. To be eligible for master's admission, you must have earned no less than a 3.5 GPA out of a possible 5.0 GPA---which is *****alent to 2.5 GPA out of a possible 4.0 GPA.

Perhaps you might consider entering Portland State as a post-baccalaureate (post-bac) student. As a post-bac student, your academic department could give you permission to enroll in graduate/master’s classes. After you have completed at least 9 graduate-level credits at Portland State with a minimum 3.0 GPA, your master’s admission would be based on the GPA earned in your graduate/master’s classes. In other words, we would consider only the GPA in your master’s classes without consideration of your GPA earned during your bachelor’s degree.

Typically, post-bac students may transfer as many as 12 credits to a graduate program. The graduate adviser in your prospective academic department/program can provide you with more details of their specific policy.

For a list of academic majors, please visit http://www.pdx.edu/academics.html where you can search an alphabetical list of majors or you can search by academic college. On the academic department and program webpages, you can find their contact information, often by clicking on a link/button labeled “contact us.”

For specific details, documentation, and forms required for the post-bac international student application, please visit http://pdx.edu/admissions/intl_postbac.html. On that webpage, you can download and print all required application forms and documents.

If you have a Saudi Arabian government scholarship, your scholarship program may or may not be given permission to study as a post-bac student. Please contact your scholarship program directly for the details of their policy.

If you decide to apply as a post-bac student, we will be happy to answer any additional questions you may have about the application process.

Paula Harris
