What makes 's
Full Time MBA Different!

Lab to Market: Signature Course Sequence

The most distinguishing feature of Rady's MBA program is its Lab to Market course sequence, which serves as the cornerstone of the Rady educational experience. Unlike traditional business school projects, this intensive and integrative series is specifically designed to help students learn to create new ideas, evaluate business models, and evolve those concepts into viable market opportunities. This signature course applies core business school disciplines to hands-on projects focused on idea generation, business planning, and the commercialization of new business opportunities. The program is led by experienced faculty who guide students through the entire innovation process, making it a truly unique MBA experience that emphasizes practical application rather than just theoretical knowledge.

STEM-Designated MBA with Innovation Focus

Rady offers a STEM-designated MBA program with a distinctive emphasis on innovation-driven industry sectors, particularly those propelled by discoveries in technology and science. This designation reflects the program's rigorous analytical approach and quantitative foundation, which goes beyond what typical MBA programs offer. The curriculum provides students with advanced analytical and theoretical frameworks specifically designed for rigorous business decision-making in technology and science-driven environments. This focus prepares graduates to interpret data, make evidence-based decisions, and communicate powerfully in sectors where technical expertise and business acumen must intersect.

Rady Action Project (RAP) Capstone Experience

The Rady Action Project (RAP) serves as a unique capstone experience that centers on developing the skills and knowledge needed to become an innovative, analytical, and data-driven manager. What makes this capstone distinctive is its dual-track approach: students can choose between a New Venture track for those excited about pursuing their own business ideas, or a Consulting track for those interested in gaining hands-on skills with established companies or startups. This flexibility allows students to customize their MBA experience according to their career aspirations while still benefiting from the program's analytical foundation. The RAP experience teaches students to conduct market research and validation, develop business cases and plans, and create go-to-market strategies in a supportive environment with dedicated advisers and coaches.

Unique Engineering-Business Collaboration

Rady offers exceptional interdisciplinary opportunities through its connection with the Institute for the Global Entrepreneur (IGE), a unique collaboration between UC San Diego's Jacobs School of Engineering and the Rady School of Management. This partnership creates distinctive educational opportunities not found in typical MBA programs, including the Technology Management program that specifically matches Rady MBA candidates with Jacobs School graduate students for practical innovation training in a team environment. This cross-disciplinary approach provides MBA students with direct access to cutting-edge technical innovations and the opportunity to work alongside engineering talent to bring these innovations to market-a unique advantage in today's technology-driven business world.

Immersion in San Diego's Innovation Ecosystem

The Rady MBA provides students with a distinctive immersion in the region's cutting-edge science and technology sectors through close interaction with world-renowned faculty, recognized industry leaders, and Rady alumni. San Diego's unique ecosystem of biotech, healthcare, technology, and defense industries creates opportunities that few other MBA programs can match. This regional advantage is enhanced by the program's robust network of external advisers and dedicated resources for entrepreneurship, including StartR Accelerators that provide training, mentorship, and an ecosystem of resources to advance entrepreneurial ideas. The program's relatively young age (established around 2005) also allows it to identify itself in terms of current and future business trends rather than being constrained by decades-old traditions.
