康奈尔大学(Cornell University)是一所位于美国纽约州伊萨卡的私立研究型大学,另有两所分校位于纽约市曼哈顿和卡塔尔教育城,是美洲大学协会的十二个创会成员之一,及NCAA体育赛事联盟常春藤盟校的成员。康奈尔大学由埃兹拉·康乃尔和安德鲁·迪克森·怀特于1865年所建立,为八个常春藤盟校中唯一一所在美国独立战争后创办的。
一、项目介绍
康奈尔的 MPS管理硕士项目由Dyson应用经济与管理学院提供,隶属于SC Johnson商学院,授予的是职业硕士学位(Master of Professional Studies,MPS)。这个学位不同于研究型硕士(MS)有点类似于国内的“专硕”概念。项目时长为两学期,从每年8月底开始,到次年5月底结束。需要特别注意的是,该项目不允许延长学制,但是同意学生中途 gap.
二、Prerequisite要求
MPS管理硕士项目对本科先修课程有明确要求:
(1) 财务会计(Financial Accounting)
(2) 金融学(Finance)
(3) 经济学(Economics)
(4) 市场营销(Marketing)
(5) 管理学(Management)
(6) 统计学(Statistics)
(7) 中级会计I (Intermediate Accounting l,针对会计方向)
缺少1-2门课程的话基本不会影响录取,但如果缺少超过2门课程,录取的难度大幅增加。
三、四轮申请DDL:
第一轮:12月1日
第二轮:1月15日
第三轮:3月1日
第四轮:4月15日
建议前两轮就申请,越往后期录取概率越小,标化考试更偏好GMAT成绩,但也接受GRE。
