Is an “Executive MBA” considered a “Masters” degree by a college hiring professors?

I’m interested in teaching some college courses but all the prospecitve colleges I’m interested in require a “Masters” degree in your field before they will consider your employment application. For anyone involved in the hiring process at a college, is an “Executive MBA” obtained from a reputable state university (i.e. not an online MBA) considered a “Masters” by college employers? Or are they looking strictly for a full-time, on campus, traditional Masters degree?

    Both are considered an MBA, so you should be fine. Most colleges also require you to have 18 graduate credits in the field you are looking to teach in as an accreditation requirement, but not all.

  2. Professor X

    An MBA is a Master of Business Administration. It is a traditional Masters degree.

    When colleges hire, they seek professors with degrees in the field in which they intend to teach. This means an MBA will suffice for a person who wishes to teach in the field of business. In the field of business, how the degree was earned (full vs. part-time) is much less important than where the degree was earned. Considerable experience in business would also be an asset.

    Best wishes to you.
