16 Best Mba Programs In Detroit, MI (2022 Updated)

Incredible faculty and staff. I have never had a teacher or Professor take as much interest in students as Dr. Force at Walsh. The academic and career advising staff are incredible as well; always available for questions and on the fly meetings for me. Courses are coordinated in a manor where previously learned concepts are applied to different courses; a great sense of cohesion from one class to the next. I am loving my post grad experience with Walsh.Robert Sinishtaj

I've attended several colleges but this one really struck out to me. The faculty from instructors, admissions, advisors, facilities, cafeteria and support staff are all very kind and knowledgeable! If you're transferring from a community college, this is an excellent choice if you're looking to graduate quickly and affordably!Sai Zaman

Walsh teaches you how to think like a business owner and not like a student trying to pass a test. The practical side of what is taught can be applied the next day for those that are working and I've been able to support and influence positive change while at General Motors because of what I learned at Walsh.derek hilbert

I have the interesting challenge of reviewing the college now that I can look back at it a few years after graduation. After taking much of your basic required classes in the much larger, far more happening main campus, you'll begin to take your business courses in a small offshoot location. It is fairly small, only composed of 2 building that you'll call home for a good 2.5 years or so of your bachelors degree. I've heard explanations of why the business students were quarantined away from the far more fun main campus but it still is the same result, you're segregated away from the cool place which really blows. Perhaps they changed it since my time but there's a few demons guarding the gates of admittance to business school. It was universally agreed upon among us students that those demons were, of course, statistics and project management. I've been made aware that they broke statistics into multiple classes since my time, and I don't know if that helped it. I'm not exaggerating when I say statistics single-handedly failed the largest proportion of aspiring business students and I observed a drop-out rate in my stats class of around 1/3 of the entire class. Project Management only had one professor, a man I came to respect through the class, but my god that class was unforgiving. Both Stats and Project Management were requirements to get into business school, you better have a healthy fear of god before you approach them and prepare to give them your all if you don't want to join the many students who fail or drop. So I've covered the demons of business school and that it's a small, cramped location that's pretty boring. That leaves us with you pursuing the rest of your degree, where your classes may vary from mine. I attended pre-covid so perhaps they've fixed this but when I went, a lot of professors would just assign you generic busy work through an online portal. These were entirely busy work, they'd often pull all their questions from online test banks that students would google for easy A's. Just lazy, pointless busywork. I like to imagine covid made them get their act together with that though; their online test bank method to teaching effectively gave the students a degree in googling 101. Overall their professors were typically decent enough, a few duds to be honest but overall a good assortment. For the most part, if you were legitimately trying your best to work hard, the staff would be willing to work with you. That's about it really. You have to dig down, work hard and surprise surprise, you'll make it through business school. What an adventure. I wind up deducting a star because they made this very fun main campus and single out the business students to cram into a couple boring buildings away from the fun. Also, they were very lazy at times with using online test banks as a substitute for real teaching (and they're foolish for thinking their students didn't know how to google test bank answers). All of that knocks off a star in my rating. But I have a lot of love for this school still, and this is a place you can seriously pursue your education. Graduating was a surreal experience, but the best part was seeing colleagues you've studied with and realizing that oh wow, they made it too.Kiff The Kiffing Kiffle

Best college in Michigan. It is a satellite branch of University of Michigan. Faculty is very helpful, knowledgeable. Campus is not big as University of Michigan, Aan Arbor.Sushmika Salunke

Very pleased with the high quality faculty, the relevancy of the curriculum, and the diverse student body. Proud to be a graduate.John Landis

Let this letter to Trio school you to avoid this place like the plague for GI Bill or Vocational Rehab: Please pray for my school experience, copy of what I sent Trio on Campus: Ms Ridley; Voc rehab does  NOT cover food or lodgjng you have been ill informed. Also since when does staff meetings take the place of your first customer the student. You informed me last minute via your surrogate which only makes me further doubt Trio's eternal and everlasting priorities and the humiliation and degradation I have suffered as a protected Veteran and Minister of the Gospel is nothing short of reprehensible  and divine childhood neglect. I will seek to take  my ministry to another learned and worthy institution next Semester or sooner. You people know nothing of love or relationship and I will be praying that you lose all government funding until you treat God's children he sends you with more honour and dignity. E.Erafael Sturms

Fantastic music and theatre program that I aid with. It's also a pretty campus. Every time I go to the Take 5 Lounge, there's always a group or two of people who are making a ruckus. I know it's a difficult slope to tackle, I don't think it's appropriate hearing the n-word in normal dialogue while I'm trying to eat, and I say that as a black man. It's not just those groups though. Groups singing some musical or someone talking loudly on their phone is annoying to hear.Ramone W

I feel that I received an excellent education. The tuition is high, it's more than UofM Ann Arbor. However, you are getting excellent Professor's in smaller classrooms, which I really thought was beneficial for me. I like knowing nearly everyone in my cohort. Professor's in my program were phenomenal. I am agnostic and I do not feel at all that religion was pushed onto me.Heather Issers

Since my past review they have gotten back to me, I've called and gotten to know some of the staff. They are the nicest and most down to level people I've delt with. Answered every question I had and then some more I hadn't even thought of, they even offered to personally grade my portfolio and tell me how strong it is and what I should add or fix. I can't put into words how badly I want to go here! I certainly hope they accept me. Thanks again to Rene, Eric, and everyone I've talked to! My past review: I really really want to go here for a degree in transportation design (hoping to pursue automotive design), but they haven't gotten back to me with any information (requested 3 weeks ago). I also would like a statistic for how many students on average are accepted.Collin Herold

i never really WENT there! and I rated it by accident! before knowing how the college is like! but right or maybe soon! I hope to get some kind of free transportation! to help me visit and get some kind of tour all through and out of the college before I go! because I'm kinda Creative myself! and I'm almost independent! and in need of some HELP in life from anybody who is actually helpful to me! and I want to know if they Actually pay their students!? are there any good dorms to live in? I need answears ! ! ! ! !lauren 12413

Not worth the money or effort. Wasted too much time for a sub par experience. But hey, I got the degree and debt to show for it, right? (Trying to stay positive) Edit: Please take into consideration, SCAD is cheaper. This place will try to sell you on "close to home and cheaper in comparison". But it isn't. Take time. Do the math. You can get a quality education from another school with better industry cred. Just for consideration.That One Chick

I'm enrolled in a Master's program of Architecture at UDM. The curriculum exactly fits my needs and considers all my previous education. Staff and students here are more like a family, that creates friendly environment especially for new students. Studios here are mixed of theoretical and practical approaches, which expands my experiences in both ways. The school shop has all kind of machines that help in doing models. The school has good ranking and reputation in the area. The dean is such a great person, also he is AIA Michigan president of year 2017. Since I got here, I have learned a lot and my skills increase especially in design and using computer softwares. The professors here are really nice and so helpful, they always have their doors opened for any questions or if you're seeking advise. I have been in contact with U of M when I was applying for a Master's program, I found them careless, kinda lost and unorganized, unlike UDM School of Architecture, they know exactly what're they doing and care about each single student in the school. School here gives students good chance to meet with professionals and big companies to help get them a co-op or and intern position once the student graduate.George Morkos

I do not recommend their clinical psychology masters program. The feedback from professors to students about being too “cheeky”, or “share more opinions” has nothing to do with the ability to practice clinically. The suggestion to share more thoughts/opinions in class if you want a letter of recommendation would not have gotten me a letter of recommendation! Apparently it was relevant if the professors liked you and your sense of humor rather than ones ability to provide therapy and conduct assessment. Overpriced for the value. There are plenty of places to get a degree from. I’ve found little from this program to be useful in clinical practice. The training I received following graduation was much more relevant to my practice than theories, having the DSM read in class, and learning to administer projective assessments. The level of diversity was appalling. The most diverse individual I can recall was a middle aged white male pursuing a second career. He stood out from the 20 something white students.Rachel Rosencrants

I would of received a better education in a third world country then what I received going here :/ I mean what can I say I had a constantly drunk professor, who every single class would be drinking out of his “big gulp” mug you could smell the alcohol on him. I also took a advanced senior leadership class where we actually drew with crayons what we wanted to be when we grow up. long story short save your money don’t go here go to a trade school or get a apprenticeship somewhere. This place will only leave you miserable and in debt my track scholarship helped with some of financials thank god.Mike

Based on my short experience with LTU, I wouldn't recommend wasting your time applying for this school. I was looking for an online Master's program and came across LTU via one of my co-workers. After contacting LTU and describing to them what I was looking for, I was quickly contacted by their admissions center. I'll be honest, at this point everything seemed to be going quite well; I had a few pleasant conversations with my counselor, all information that I had asked for was quickly given, and the application process was very well explained and went smoothly. After that, is where things started going downhill for LTU. I was finally contacted by my counselor and told that I will not be accepted to the Master's program that I had applied for due to new "requirements." Now, I understand that I have been out of school for awhile at this point and things change, but LTU couldn't even explain what requirements I did not meet. All they told me is that I would be receiving a package explaining everything. Well guess what, I never actually received anything from them explaining the decision. Trying to gather more information as to why I wasn't accepted, as I was preparing to apply to other programs, I again tried contacting LTU and my counselor. After numerous attempts of trying to get a hold of someone, I never did receive a simple response either by email or by phone call. I cannot recommend a institution that does not make any kind of effort to keep applicants informed on decisions made, whether accepted or rejected. They are clearly just worried about making money and trying to boost their own rankings. They could honestly care less about potential students in my opinion unless its going to benefit them in some way. So disappointing.Sean Gage

After getting a Degree in their Computer Science, Software Development, Web Development Program and being actively a part of Phi Kappa Upsilon, expected to demonstrate confidence and professionalism in the field once completed everything. But instead demonstrated vindictiveness over time against other people in the same field from other schools all over the globe because of the lack of knowledge gained in the program to succeed, unlike others had. THIS SCHOOL IS NOT RECOMMENDED OR THE PROGRAMS WITHIN IT to people if you intend to have confidence WITH professionalism taught to you and engrained in you, so you can demonstrate it for all like the advertisements. These traits will not be given to you. You will be taken in willingly, and even given a semi-serious job there to help you along and pay bills, BUT you will NOT make people happy doing what you love. You will instead lash out at people on occasion in a vindictive fashion and not enjoy what you do. THIS IS FACTUAL. Working there behind a desk still trying to use my degree all over the country and planet since 2011. This is a warning for all to stay away from this school and people that have just Lawrence Tech Degrees, as you will not go anywhere with them and be stuck in a rut for over 8 years in counting. This has NOTHING to do with the current economy and status of Detroit Michigan right now. It has to do with all the professors and people that have been around and taught over the time being here. Learned nothing about helping oneself or how to handle a situation properly in a polite manner. Still feel uneducated and act unprofessional after attaining degree. BE WARNED AND STAY AWAY! THIS SCHOOL WILL RUIN YOUR LIFE AND NOT MAKE IT BETTER.NobodySmith1

I laugh how half these reviews are not even students… these are all paid reviews 😂😂 International student (3.8gpa) : Yes. You will get a job if you attend. If you would like to work in Michigan that is… You will also have to pay for classes that force you to learn about the American gvt structure (absolutely pointless) as every elective is biased towards domestic students. There are random fees that are never discussed. Wi-Fi is horrible (somewhat decent after 8pm). Gym is always used by athletic teams with poor scheduling. Food on campus is a joke (student government has been fighting to switch provider for years already) There is no communication between the many departments, if you are architecture and want to work countless hours and nights in a row. Have fun balancing these other $$$ electives because "my class is the most important because it took me many years to be able to teach so if you show less emphasis in my class, I will show less compassion towards your grade" – example of professors logic. TL:dr LTU will get you a job, their curriculum needs improvement. Facilities are out dated. Hella expensive even for a private institution that gives scholarship, they'll slap you with unregulated fees. CheersAras Puodziunas

Ross is a good program, but not a great program yet. Student diversity and course strength could use a lot of work. The good: The school does a good job of career stuff: we have career treks, enough companies engaging with students and the alumni network is large and helpful. Inspite of the easy going student culture, the students do well in courses and I was constantly surprised by my peers' grades. Some of the students have an exceptional background. The bad: I felt the school was very "fratty" – the culture feels like high school where everyone had their clique. There are easy divides you can easily spot – domestic/internationals, white/others etc. Ski trips where cliques choose to cohabit a house, spring break trips where predictable groups go off together to South America etc., are most visible manifestations of this divide. Further, the selection of student-led committees for school-wide activities like GBR was not transparent – it was mostly 'friends and family'. One reason is because Michigan football has a big impact on the culture, e.g. the Bus where club members act crazy (e.g. dance on top of a bus) during football tailgates. Others who don't identify with such stuff feel alienated and either stop coming or just hang out with their own groups.Jefri Tamba

Amazing campus, faculty and staff. I completed my MBA at Ross before this amazing new building was built. I have returned, a few years later to continue my learning journey. I really recommend the Open Enrollment Executive Education classes. Thus far, I have taken Positive Leader Program, Strategic Leader Program and Enterprise Executive Programs.Victor Gonzalez-Maertens

Outstanding school for graduate business studies. Very diverse, amazing faculty, excellent career opportunities, down to earth and humble student body, experience focused learning designed to identify strengths and develop leadership abilities.Sue Kaur

Wayne State is often overshadowed by U of M and Michigan State. That goes for athletics, academic prowess, and the fact that it is in the very center of Detroit, a city that is really trying to be that much better. And it is. The same can be said about Wayne State. Architecturally, this place is incredible, (a literal sandbox of the famed architect Minoru Yamasaki and worth the visit literally for his buildings and reflecting pool alone). The professors are overall great and push their students for excellence. Unfortunately it is also a place where educational inequality prevails, with a lot of students transferring out, mainly due to systemic inequality in high schools. It is getting better but it is a long road. The "4 year degree" hasn't been achieved by everyone due to having students often "catching up" with core classes. That is the reality. However, if you do make it through, it is worth it. I want to one day see Wayne State placed in conjunction with the big 2 schools in Michigan.Theodore Hynes

It’s a great! Division II school. However, NCAA Division Sports is not the end or beginning to an education. Contrary, Detroit seems to be summed up as oversimplified. The city and the people who go to Universities in Detroit, people of color generally speaking. People of color maybe depicted in a way- propaganda. In addition, WSU is not reflective of stigmatism as much as it’s portrayed In other common wealth area’s of Detroit . – It was called “Detroit Medical College” first. Wiki-1868Brian Crushshon

Wayne State University is located in Midtown Detroit and offers more than 300 academic programs and more than 350 degree programs. It is Michigan’s only urban public research university. It has 61.8% international students from 5 continents. And it’s right in the heart of Detroit!Athra Alkhafaji

I am in the new JASS (Journalism and Screen Studies Major) at UM-Dearborn. The profs are very helpful. They let current students print up to 200 free computer pages a semester. The UMD campus has an international atmosphere. Don't expect a wide open campus like Ann Arbor's this campus is compact. All current students can use the fitness facility as part of your enrollment. There is an indoor track, aerobic equipment, weights, racket ball courts, and fitness classes. It is in the athletic building and there is ice skating and basketball. It is supposed to open at 6 a.m. (sometimes they arrive at 6ish but I'm not rating the gym staff) Get in a workout before your class, they have showers and hair dryers. Bring a lock. Arrive very early for class because the parking lot gets full very fast and I'v only seen a shuttle bus once. UMD has just built brand new dorms, so you can get the full college experience. They are located on the Fairlane Mall grounds across Evergreen. I hope they build a cross ramp, because Evergreen drivers go very fast.Tish Tansil

I believe that though UMD may lack the sophistication and professionalism of Ann Arbor campus, it does a good job at providing students with direct attention and assistance from their faculty. It does need to improve infrastructure, international student diversity and should establish stricter entry regulation so that the student quality may improve.However this will not happen because they will not want to compete with their mother campus and secondly thought they have the budget to make the campus better, they will not provide A star quality for a minority student campus. It also needs to improve the catering service- there is no organic food options neither any healthy options- students are forced to eat from the unhealthy options. I think UMD can improve its quality standard and can ensure that at an affordable cost. It needs to pull up its socks, and try to strive for higher standards. However I will give it a thumbs up for student faculty relationships and and quality of faculty.xena athena

It's okay so far. I am still new here. The campus is nice along with the new dorms/lofts. The scheduling for classes is really confusing. Also, this is suppose to be a NO SMOKING campus, people smoke everyday. I just seen someway today walk by puffing away and someone yesterday right by everyone as we are walking, they don't even have the decency to go to a secluded corner. So far it's fine here besides those unfortunate things. (Warning: beware of bee's, there are bee's all over this campus and they will get right by your face).Moe Chamas

Back in October 2001 , I kept that business College from plummeting to the ground during a heavy wind storm event. The building was still in the construction phase and a good share of the windows hadn't been installed yet, and I was in charge of Security to guard the computer room and a lot of accoutrements that were already in the building. That storm started blowing 70-100 mph.wind gusts in the open window holes and the glass atrium started to act like a balloon. Scared me and I dont scare easily. I had to find a way of stabilizing the building and being an old farm boy, I knew tractors and hydraulics, I saw a HI-LO hydraulic lift and totally disregarded orders by my bosses to not use any of the construction crews equipment .I ran that hydraulic hoist up to be just snug tight to the steel I- beam ( rafter) to stabilize the entire atrium to ensure that it wouldn't collapse. I am completely sure that would have happened had I not. The next morning , the crew came in ,saw the lift nicely placed up against the roof and let my boss know that whoever did that probably kept the building in one piece . At first, my boss reiterated to me and reprimanded me for using their equipment , then some fella in charge of the school had heard about and saw what I had done and told me more than likely I really did keep that atrium from going down and even thanked me profusely and gave me a heartfelt and genuine hug. I dont know if that gentleman was Eli Broad or if he wasnt- I didn't have the time or energy to ask. I needed to go home to sleep. Anyway, I'm glad the business school is still upright and educating people . I dont handle Security anymore, but at the time, I was glad I was there to help . Thanks for your time in reading about my experience – and I thought my experience with the Eli Broad building might be a good read for people who might not know what their school has endured. Peace.Barry Lynn Strank

I attended the Broad College of Business as a marketing major from 2020-2021. I transferred to Michigan State in 2019 from a smaller private college where I played baseball and studied business. I transferred because I wanted to focus on my education in the field of business, and coming to the Broad College of Business was by far the best choice. Broad College did a great job at making me an expert in all different fields of business other than just my major of marketing. On top of it, the most important thing is retaining all of the information that we learned and they did a wonderful job at helping me do that. The building is beautiful and every time you walk through the doors in the morning, you feel like you are apart of something special that a lot of people don't have the opportunity to be apart of. I highly recommend being a student of Michigan State and the globally recognized Broad College of Business – it is really something special that will help your career take off!Andrew Beitel

If I say the teachers are IRRESPONSIBLE that would be a gross understatement. Our teacher missed many classes and even when she was in the class she did not know what she was talking about. Apparently, it was the first time she was exposed to the material! One day, she asked us "what is the topic for today?" And at the end of the semester she forgot to submit our grades and my grade turned to zero. We had a lot of back and forth to fix her error. Sadly, she received the best teacher's award the very same year that she was "teaching" our class. Just imagine how bad the other teachers are.Bernard Bronson

Some teachers are knowledgeable but not good at teaching at all. They have two teachers for almost every course and most of the time, one is good and one isn't. They don't even replace that particular faculty with a good professors so that the students can have an equal learning opportunities. You're then left to somehow complete the course and put in strenuous amounts of efforts by your ownself. Another thing, they have so many things going on at the same time but with extremely limited time duration, they do email you prior but you can miss a lot of important events, schedules, etc. Didn't have the best experience. Lots of onus, rushing, sometimes unnecessary work. But other than that few professors are good. Nice architecture of buildings, nice class rooms, etc.New Begining

I am a current student of this institution and I have been nothing but completely happy here. The professors and administration are student focused. The driving purpose of the faculty is to see the students understand the Law and become complete practitioners (and pass the bar of course). If you want to attend a place where you are so much more than a number, where not only your professors will know you by first name, but so will the Dean, then this is the place for you.Stephanie Moore

I love this campus building. So fitting for a business school. And ideally located right in Woodward with plenty of Mobility options. However, i would really hope and recommend that MDOT and the city install a ped crossing at that temple intersection. Much needed considering the university student and LCA attendee populations.Tony G

The College of Business at Eastern Michigan University has been a great experience. There's several floors of study rooms and spaces, a large computer lab, and a cafe. Attached parking garage requires a parking pass but there is street parking nearby.Jediah Biddinger

Kyle Sutherland is not a good advisor by any means. He gives out wrong information and is very rude. Please consider giving him more training or releasing him from the school. He is very lazy and does not seem to want to do the job of "advising".D B

Kyle Sutherland is a good advisor by all means. He gives out the best information and is very helpful. Please consider giving him a raise or naming the school after him. He is very patient and seems to love to do the job of "advising".Cort Sutherland
