Cannabis Commercialization Concentration

Join one of the most flexible and customizable MBA programs in the country to hone your skills in specific targeted areas of business – or explore building knowledge across sectors – to expand your insights and set yourself apart from the competition.

An MBA Concentration in Cannabis Commercialization is an ideal option for those that want to expand their career options in or adjacent to the rapidly evolving cannabis industry. The rapidly evolving cannabis industry is anticipated to become a multi-billion dollar economic driver across the USA - and beyond. Career opportunities related to cannabis are vast, and cross-over talent is in high demand. Plant-touching verticals such as cultivation, extraction, manufacturing, and/or retail need experts from other industries to adapt, extend, and expand best practices into the highly regulated cannabis market. There is strong and growing demand for ancillary businesses complementing and serving the cannabis industry, with potential career pathways in services such as accounting and tax, finance and banking, data analysis, marketing and branding, supply chain, and human resources.

Whether you are drawn to Plant Touching or Ancillary Cannabis Business career pathways - or want to explore options in both categories - you can tailor the Cannabis Commercialization Concentration to support your career goals.
