Welcome to Graduate Programs in the USM College of Business

Thank you for your interest in the College of Business graduate degree programs at the University of Southern Mississippi (USM).  We offer a superior education that is both affordable and accessible to working professionals.  Graduate degrees are available in the following subject areas:

The graduate and undergraduate programs in the USM College of Business are accredited by both the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) and the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).  Accreditation represents a standard of excellence that prospective students and employers look for in a business degree program. 

There are five USM campuses in south MS, including the main campus in Hattiesburg and satellite campuses in Gulfport, Long Beach, Ocean Springs and the Stennis Space Center.  The MPA and full-time MBA programs are offered in Hattiesburg.  The Gulf Park campus provides evening courses for working professionals who wish to complete their MBA on a part-time basis. Students may attend either the Gulf Park or Hattiesburg campuses (or both) seamlessly, and may choose to do so if they need additional course hours or a specific course offering.
