The Flexible MBA built for ambitious students

“For many of us, the decision to pursue an MBA comes with an important question: how do you continue growing your career while making time for school and life outside of work? That was a challenge Randall Kennedy understood well. “As a working professional, I wanted a programme that could accommodate my schedule, but I didn’t want it to be just another degree or a piece of paper,” he says. “I actually wanted the experience, and I wanted to feel part of a community.” He found the answer to both through the 100% online Flexible MBA at Johns Hopkins University’s Carey Business School . With Carey’s Flexible MBA, you can take the next step in your career or try something new while gaining valuable skills, connections, and confidence.

For more than 150 years , the university has remained committed to improving lives through education, research, and innovation. Today, you don’t have to be on a Johns Hopkins campus to get the benefits of a Johns Hopkins education. There are dozens of online courses and programmes — the part-time, 100% online Flexible MBA is one of them and a favourite of those in the business world. “I really liked that Carey’s Flexible MBA offered both synchronous and asynchronous options. A number of my courses offered residencies that were in a virtual or in-person format. They allowed me to connect real time with students inside and out of my industry,” shares graduate Andre D’Souza . “And the asynchronous option helped me catch up on assignments with a full-time job and a personal life. I literally felt I was supported in all areas to succeed.” Designed for those with more than three years of work experience, courses are taught in short, eight-week terms. You can choose from 22 core courses, including Accounting and Financial Reporting, Corporate Finance, and more. There are eight specialisations . “Artificial Intelligence for Business” explores how AI can be applied in real business settings. “Business Analytics and Risk Management” covers data analysis, spreadsheet modelling, and risk assessment. “Entrepreneurship” is ideal for those who want to learn how new ideas are built from the ground up. The “Finance” specialisation builds your expertise in portfolio management, global financial markets, and risk management, whilst “Health Care Management” gives you access to the resources behind one of the world’s leading medical institutions. The “Leadership” specialisation builds the skills needed to manage high-performing teams. “Marketing” is where you understand customer behaviour and develop effective strategies for today’s digital environment. Lastly, the “Real Estate” specialisation is practical, with modelling, feasibility analysis, entrepreneurship, and land use policy courses. Carey brings together students from over 72 countries across its Baltimore and Washington, D.C. campuses.

He took full advantage of the school’s many networking opportunities. “I was an active member in the pro bono consulting club and contributed to the ventures programme as well,” he shares. “It was really surprising to me. Even as an online student, Carey really embraced me.” That support doesn’t stop after graduation. Flexible MBA graduates become part of the wider Johns Hopkins University network of more than 260,000 alumni worldwide. That means access to mentorship, networking opportunities, and industry connections that can support career growth for years to come. For many graduates, that support translates into career growth. Among the Class of 2025, 85% of graduates received a salary increase and 75% earned a promotion. Graduates reported an average salary of US$232,000 five years after completing the programme. “The Flexible MBA programme really helped my career,” says D’Souza, who’s a Practice Manager at Sibley Memorial Hospital. “I was offered two promotions during my time at Carey, and I truly felt that I was able to excel in my coursework and at work and not let my personal life take a back seat.” Applications for Fall 2026 are now open.
