About Business Administration in Aviation at the Asia Campus
An MBA is a scientific approach to management. It is an advanced business degree that provides a foundation in various business sectors including accounting, finance, marketing, operations management, and human resources. Similar to an MBA, a Master of Business Administration in Aviation (MBAA) offers a comprehensive look inside the business world but from an aviation and aerospace perspective — looking at real industry problems.
Awarded by Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, offered by ERC Institute (ERCI), the 36-credit hour MBAA program is especially suited for degree holders who want to gain a competitive edge.
Upon completion of the MBAA program, students emerge with:
- A better understanding of modern management concepts, methods and tools within an aviation context
- The ability to manage the efficient and effective use of scarce resources
- An understanding of how to operate in an atmosphere of heightened national and international competition
- The skill set needed to become a leader or decision-maker in the aviation field
ERAU offers both full- and part-time tracks for this degree program.
- The full-time program is offered in an intimate classroom setting where students get one-on-one attention from faculty members and the chance to interact with and learn from fellow students. This is an accelerated full-time MBA in Aviation designed to be completed in just one year.
- The part-time program is offered in blended delivery modes so that students can continue working full time through their enrollment. Most terms begin with two five-day classroom sessions at SAA and continue with online interaction between students and the instructor. The program is designed to be completed in six terms spanning 24 months. ERAU merges the convenience of night and weekend courses with diverse learning modes:
- In-classroom
- EagleVision Classroom (Web video conferencing between classrooms)
- Online (from anywhere with an Internet connection)

The special intricacies of aviation are woven into a strong, traditional business foundation by combining a specific core of distinct business competencies with a strong aviation foundation.
The demand for skilled professionals continues to grow in response to the increasing need for leaders who can manage the efficient and effective use of scarce resources; operate in an atmosphere of heightened national and international competition; and respond to the call to preserve our world’s fragile eco-system – and the MBAA curriculum is oriented toward the needs of leaders and decision-makers who can operate in this environment.
Specific prerequisites for each graduate course in the MBAA are contained in the Graduate Courses section of this catalog. Students must assume responsibility to see that all prerequisites are satisfied. However, students who cannot demonstrate, through academic transcripts, prerequisite knowledge in one of the following areas (management, accounting, finance, quantitative methods, marketing and economics), will be required to register for BUSW 500. The prerequisite subject knowledge for a specific graduate course must be satisfied before enrollment in that specific course is permitted.

| Specialization Option: Choose any specialization. Students wishing to complete multiple specializations usually will be required to take an additional 12 semester hours (4 courses) for the second specialization. However, in some instances that may not be the case. For example, the MBAA Finance Specialization requires 4 finance courses and the Marketing Specialization requires 3 marketing courses and 1 unduplicated elective. Students seeking both specializations would only have to take 7 courses (21 semester hours) and not 8 courses (24 semester hours). The reason is that any of the finance specialization courses can also count as the Marketing Specialization unduplicated elective. | ||

-

MS to MBAA
Students who have already completed the Master of Science in Management (MSM), Master of Science in Project Management (MSPM), or Master of Science in Technical Management (MSTM) may opt to complete the MBAA degree. The 33 hour degree requirement for the MBAA will be partially fulfilled using 15 hours of transfer credit from the MSM, MSPM, or MSTM programs plus an additional 18 hours of required additional core courses and electives. However, in many instances students seeking one or more MBAA specializations will be taking more than 21 additional hours due to the specialization requirements.
For MSM/MSPM/MSTM to MBAA
MSM/MSPM/MSTM students are currently enrolled under significantly different catalogs. As such there are multiple variations that can take place. The guidelines for determining the MSM/MSPM/MSTM transfer hours/additional core hours/specialization hours/elective hours, to the MBAA Program are as follows:
Transfer Students Not Selecting an MBAA Specialization
- Transfer MBAA core courses or MBAA core equivalents first. The maximum number of hours that can be transferred is 15.
- After it is determined the number of hours transferred for core courses, then transfer any unduplicated COB courses taken in the MSM Program so that the sum of the total hours transferred for core and non-core courses is 15. For example, if 9 hours of core courses or equivalents are transferred then 6 hours of non-core courses could be transferred.
- Next, determine the number of hours of MBAA core courses that still needs to be taken to complete the MBAA Program. For example, there are 21 hours core course hours and if 12 core course hours are transferred in there still remains 9 core course hours that need to be taken.
- Next, determine the number of hours of electives that need to be taken. An elective is any unduplicated COB course. The sum of the hours transferred, plus additional core hours, plus the elective hours must equal 33 hours. For example, if 15 hours in (9 hours of core MBAA courses and 6 hours of non-MBAA core courses), then 12 hours of core MBAA courses and 6 hours of electives will need to be taken.
Transfer Students Selecting an MBAA Specialization(s)
- Transfer MBAA core courses or MBAA core equivalents first. The maximum number of hours that can be transferred is 15.
- After it is determined the number of hours transferred for core courses, then transfer any unduplicated COB courses taken in the MSM Program so that the sum of the total hours transferred for core and non-core courses is 15. For example, if 9 hours of core courses or equivalents are transferred then 6 hours of non-core courses could be transferred. However, courses that count toward MBAA Specializations should be transferred before electives.
- Next, determine the number of hours of MBAA core courses that still needs to be taken to complete the MBAA Program. For example, there are 21 hours core course hours and if 9 core course hours are transferred in there still remains 12 core course hours that need to be taken.
- Next, determine the number of hours for MBAA Specialization(s) that need to be taken.
- Next, determine the number of hours of electives that need to be taken. An elective is any unduplicated COB course. A minimum of 33 hours is needed for courses transferred in, additional core courses, specialization courses required, and electives (if needed). However, in most instances the total hours will exceed 33 as a result of the specialization requirements.
