College + Kelley master’s degree in Business

Designed for students to combine an undergraduate degree in the arts and sciences with a master’s degree in business.

Study what you love and gain the business skills employers want!
The Indiana University College + Kelley program is a 4 + 1 program designed for undergraduates who want to combine the power of a liberal arts education with business skills before or during entrance into the job market.
No business background or courses are required—the +Kelley program provides a summer boot camp to prepare you to enter one of our full-time or part-time degree programs.

Full-Time Option (Spring and Summer Boot Camps with MS in Information Systems)
Begin with summer boot camps (Business Fundamentals and Information Systems Fundamentals) in Bloomington and then finish with coursework in Bloomington for two or three more semesters to complete a Master of Science in Information Systems (MSIS) degree. A Master of Science in Finance (MSF) will be available in 2017.

Part-Time Option (Summer Boot Camp and online MS degree)
If you’ve accepted a full-time job upon graduation, you should consider our part-time option. Begin with a summer boot camp in Bloomington, Ind., before you start your job. Then take 15 months to five years to complete your graduate business degree online while you work.
We currently offer six Master of Science degrees:
Business Analytics
Entrepreneurship & Innovation
Finance
Global Supply Chain Management
Marketing
Strategic Management
[These part time degree options require a full time job. You must have full time employment secured before enrolling in the online portion of the program.]
