The MBA Designed for Working Life
Willamette’s redesigned MBA for Professionals is built for people with full calendars and big ambitions. Ours is an integrated, project-based MBA you can apply to your work right now, with a hybrid schedule and more affordable tuition that keeps ROI front and center.
The Kind of MBA That Shows Up at Work
Mike Mattson MBA’18 spotted a major talent gap at his employer and turned his MBA capstone into an apprenticeship program to help find a solution. By graduation, his salary doubled. Three years later, it doubled again. Just as important, he found the confidence to show up fully in his work.
“There's so much value you can get from an MBA in ways that you could probably never imagine until you've gone through it. You get experience and learn to connect the dots across your classes.”
Transformational, Not Transactional. This is DIII Done Right.
At Willamette University, being a student-athlete means showing up to campus with a built-in community and big expectations. Last fall, Willamette Bearcats posted a 3.49 cumulative GPA, with 226 of 381 student-athletes earning a 3.5 or higher. On the field, in the pool, in the lab, and in the library, Bearcats are getting it done.
When Your Game Plan Includes Grad School and the Gulf Stream
Double major Nick Beswick-Seidl ’26 doesn’t fit into one box, and that’s the point. When he's not kicking field goals, he's presenting award-winning research at national conferences. For Nick, that trifecta of academics, athletics, and impact is the Willamette way.
