The Master of Science in Transportation Management (MSTM), offered by the Lucas Graduate School of Business with support from the Mineta Transportation Institute, is a fully accredited, 30-unit program that takes two and half or three years to complete as a part-time student. The curriculum consists of six required courses, two electives, and a two-course culminating capstone experience.
The curriculum is led by nationally recognized instructors who are academic or industry experts. The MSTM is fully accredited by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).
Live, online classes are held on weekday evenings, allowing students to work full time while earning their degrees. Students generally take one course at a time, one night per week, for each ten-class session, for a total of four classes per year.
