Default MBA in Aviation Management at Embry

This question is for anyone who is or has completed the MBA online program at Embry in Aviation Management. I realize the the topic has nothing to do with flying but I thought I would ask just in case someone knows more about the program. What is the nature of the online MBA - Aviation Management like? Does the school require a GMAT?

How much is the program? I'd say there are better MBA programs out there, that will give you a different perspective, instead of just an airline slant. It's not like any of the airline CEO's have Airline Management specializations in their MBA's, so why pay the Riddle price?

Just a thought...I'd search around to see what else is out there...actually, I have been searching around for a while, and Riddle isn't even in the running for an MBA, if I go that route.

Your Mileage May Vary.

Hmmm, maybe that's the problem with the airlines?

I'd also like to know the tuition cost for an MBA at Riddle and the GMAT requirement.

I just finished up my BS with them in Airport management and if I can recall I think my professor said that there was no GMAT requirement and they have what is called a capstone project instead of a thesis. Yeah and classes are like 1,000 a pop for military and a little more for civilian.

ERAU doesn't have an MBA program. They have a Master's of Management, it's similar but different. Here's a link to their estimated costs. The online Master's program is actually one of the cheaper Master's degrees in the country.

I thought MBAs only came in three flavors -- management, finance, and accounting.

Never heard of an "Aviation Management" MBA.

ERAU has a Master's in Science and only requires 36 credits, although all 36 must be taken at riddle. There is a project but it is a 50 page paper which other schools may, or may not, call a thesis. I think the per credit cost is around $330.
