Hi Daniela,


In an attempt to directly address your question- I think that typically it takes two to three years.


However, I would probably advise you to see if you can identify the benefit to having a masters in international business in a specific scenario. Unless you enter into a specialization or are industry driven (i.e. Academics), I am not sure what the benefit would be to obtaining a masters in international business.


Ironically, I studied international business in college and am now in the field of my study. However, very little if anything I studied in school regarding international business is applicable in my role today. The world has grown (smaller) exponentially since then.


I would recommend perhaps getting into the field professionally and then pursuing an advanced degree. Many companies will encourage and support employees to pursue advanced degrees.


Hope this helps!

Dear Daniela:


It is hard to give you a definitive answer without knowing what specific programs that you might apply to. The number of credits and each program's definition of full-time varies from program to program.


Typically, professional master's like the MBA take 1-3 years. The most typically length is two years.
