FULL-TIME MBA SPECIALIZATION AREAS
Ambitious to maximize their skill sets, most Purdue MBA students choose to complete one or two areas of focused study. We call these focused studies specialization areas or option areas.
Purdue emphasizes quantitative analysis alongside the qualitative, establishing a strong foundation of business knowledge. You’ll take that knowledge to the next level in your specialization area courses, focusing on the specific skills you decide to study. Choose your focus, then become the expert.
Specialization areas add depth to the broad base of management knowledge covered in the core curriculum and are not required for the completion of the MBA degree. Even so, specialization areas are recommended to enhance your skills in a specific business function or to market your skills to potential employers.
Your selection of a specialization area will be influenced by your own experience and your goals after graduation. Besides the explanatory resources we provide our students year-round, the Student Services Office conducts an information session during your first module to help you decide which option areas would best serve your career.
On this page, you’ll find links to overviews of the seven functional and six interdisciplinary option areas offered at Krannert.
Accounting
Our financial accounting offerings are designed from a user perspective. They will provide you with the skills to read, understand, and act upon financial reports.
Finance
The finance specialization area prepares students for a career in corporate finance or investment management, either of which requires an understanding of the role of financial markets in a global economy. Students who pursue a corporate finance career must be able to adopt the perspective of a financial manager who makes financing and investment decisions for the company.
Marketing
There are four tracks within the marketing program: industrial marketing, consumer marketing, marketing research, and consulting. Our objective is to train students for positions in any of the four tracks.
Management Information Systems
The Management Information Systems (MIS) specialization or option area explicates the science of collecting, storing, processing, and disseminating information for useful and effective decision-making by managers. Understanding the techniques to manage this information and the underlying technologies is fundamental in the business decision-making process.
Operations
The operations function of any organization carries out that organization’s main objectives. For example, if the organization is a manufacturing company, then it’s operations that makes the products. If the organization is a service provider, then operations provides the services. Operations management involves the management of business processes (used to design, produce, distribute, and deliver goods and/or services). Operations is not just manufacturing: service sector companies from health care, insurance, banking, airlines, and more hire operations managers. The Operations Management Specialization is designed to prepare students to be leaders in their operations management careers.
Strategic Management
Strategic management is built on the premise that managers make decisions that influence the overall success of their organizations. We concentrate on how the most effective managers create and maximize value for their stakeholders, competition to achieve high performance and market victories, and how and why some companies are successful while others are not.
Human Resource Management
The Krannert MBA Human Resource (HR) Management Specialization is designed to provide students with a broad understanding of various HR topics and their relationship to individual and organizational performance. The HR track is designed for students interested in pursuing a career in Human Resources Management.
Organizational Behavior
The Krannert Organizational Behavior (OB) Specialization is designed to provide students with an introduction to the critical soft skills they need to be effective leaders in organizations. The OB track is specifically designed for students seeking a general management position rather than an HR position.
Business Analytics
Surveys show that consulting has been a very desirable career among MBA students since the s. In recent years, the economy has greatly affected the consulting industry. However, a particular sector of consulting which emphasizes integration of analytical methodologies and modern information technology to generate business intelligence and solve industry-specific problems is still flourishing.
Management Consulting
Management consulting is one of the most attractive and sought-after career tracks for MBA graduates. It is a very demanding, fast-paced, and rewarding career requiring students to demonstrate a strong ability to communicate and solve problems in a team under extreme pressure. Krannert’s management consulting specialization prepares MBA students for a career in management consulting, general management or an internal consulting role. The focus of this specialization is to develop critical skills for a successful consulting career.
Global Supply Chain Management
Many of today’s most successful firms attribute their success to a strategically managed global supply chain. The complexities of coordinating and collaborating within a global network of designers, manufacturers, distributors and retailers grows as businesses seek to attain a competitive advantage through carefully formulated strategies for managing flows in physical, informational, and financial channels. The Global Supply Chain Management Option gives future managers the opportunity to be on the forefront of emerging ideas and technologies that promise to provide a differentiating advantage to businesses in the future.
International Management
In today’s global marketplace, general managers working for any company must be sufficiently knowledgeable to anticipate and respond to worldwide changes in economic and technological environments. The International Management Option provides future managers with a strategic view of the challenges and opportunities facing corporations, and with the knowledge and skills to deal with such changes.
Manufacturing/Technology Management
The Manufacturing & Technology Management (MTM) Option provides a broad, multi-disciplinary perspective of how to manage a manufacturing sector enterprise. It is designed to be taken as a dual-option in the MBA program. The goal of this option is to give students the skills they need in every functional area, such as operations or finance, to be a successful manager and leader in a manufacturing industry. MTM achieves this goal through traditional classroom learning and hands-on learning project opportunities.
Technology Innovation & Entrepreneurship
The Technology Innovation and Entrepreneurship (TIE) Option Area includes the topics of technology planning, new product management, patents, capitalization, venture formation, business concept validation, commercialization, market assessment, and product planning. Technology is broadly interpreted, and a multidisciplinary perspective is emphasized.

Academics
Purdue University’s Krannert School of Management is a heavyweight in the MBA universe, especially when it comes to its “areas of strength: quantitative methods, operations, finance, and economics.” Those looking to develop a “strong analytical and quantitative background” can hardly go wrong with a Krannert MBA. Best of all, at state school prices, Krannert “provides a great return on investment.” But it’s not just the school’s low tuition that lends Krannert a kinder bottom line. As one student explains, “Many of us are actually doing this program at almost no cost thanks to the number of scholarships and assistantships [on offer]. This is very unique for a top MBA program. My friends at Wharton, MIT, Tepper, etc. are paying way more!”
Krannert excels even outside its quantitatively-focused standout disciplines. Students encounter a faculty experienced “in every aspect of management, from operations and finance to marketing and HR” here. But Krannert’s academic excellence comes with high expectations. Academics are tough; there’s a “‘no BS’ atmosphere here. Here you are expected to ‘work hard, work right, and work together.’” MBAs assure us that Krannert “will push everyone to the limits, truly creating upending experiences that develop the individual along several dimensions.” This is true not merely in terms of in-class work; the program “also provides several experiential learning opportunities through [its] consulting projects and study abroad programs.” “The experiential learning projects give us good exposure to real-world work before we actually take the plunge,” students tell us.
In terms of size, Krannert is just right. The program “is small enough for each student to stand out and become a leader if they would like to,” yet “large enough and diverse enough to really learn a lot from your classmates.” Krannert keeps class sizes small, which “means that students have greater one-on-one time with professors and they remain closely knit even years after graduation.” Krannert professors “work to continue to contribute to research and stay involved in their respective fields,” yet remain “genuinely interested in helping their students and are open and available to them any time we need.”

Campus Life
Students Say
The school “really tries to make a community for all of its students,” through campus “organizations that help new students, international students, and families become accustomed to life in West Lafayette. They host many cultural events to show the diver- sity of its student body and educate everyone [on the different] cultural background[s].” Campus life offers “a huge number of activities that one can take part in or lead. Be it clubs, the entrepreneurship center (Burton D. Morgan), international trips, club trips, case competitions, taskforces, GCSMI (Supply Chain Initiative), social activities, etc.” Hometown West Lafayette has “plenty of restaurants to choose from and cost of living is very affordable.” Purdue athletics is another big attraction, of course.
The student body includes “a truly international population that provides for diversity in culture, thoughts, and work styles.” “It has truly been a melting pot experience,” one student writes. Students are also diverse in age: “There are a number of students who are married [and some with] kids,” while “at the same time, there are quite a few students that graduated from undergrad within a year of starting the MBA program.”
