At Tepper, we understand the importance of ensuring a student experience that emphasizes support, responsiveness and teamwork. Among the various program offerings is an early-completion option that many students choose to pursue. If you are interested in accelerating your studies, you may want to consider FastWeek as a valuable way to complete your requirements more quickly.
FastWeek is an annual FlexMode event that features an intensive week of study on campus, in Pittsburgh during mid-January. The option provides an accelerated track of study consisting of two elective courses. Because the rate of classroom lectures and study is rigorous, students attend classes in Pittsburgh where interaction with professors, staff and classmates provides a supportive environment. Upon successful completion, students accrue a total of 12 units and can complete the MBA program ahead of schedule.
Students should not feel pressured to attend. FastWeek is optional for those FlexMode MBA students who have time to spend a week on campus and an interest in early completion while working face-to-face with classmates and faculty.
