Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

A: DIU currently offersa competitive online MBA (Master of Business Administration) program. We accept new registrants every month, and a new cycle of each program begins every month. The duration of each course is 2 months (8 weeks).

These are not on-campus programs, and students do not need to travel to the United States in order to complete their studies. All courses and examinations are offered online, supplemented by an audio and video system and an extensive online library.

The DIU e-learning system has several discussion forums, offering students the opportunity to communicate easily with one another, with their professors, and with the administration. Each course also includes its own forum, allowing for topic-specific discussion and increased class participation.

A:  The online MBA program takes a minimum of 16 months from start to finish.  Students must complete 14 courses at 3 credits each, plus:
– either a 6-credit Management Consulting course or a 6-credit Research Project (for those students looking to pursue a PhD), for a total of 48 credits.

A: That is fine; you can work at your own pace, as long as you complete your courses within the maximum amount of time of 4 years.

A: Our programs are designed to have students take one course each month. If you feel that you are able and you have sufficient time to do it then you mauy also take 2 courses at the same time.
