Nashville, Tennessee — February 18, 2026 — Leads & Copy — Trevecca Nazarene University has launched a reimagined Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree, featuring a 10-month accelerated option, positioning it as one of the fastest in the U.S.
The redesigned MBA program offers working professionals a faster route through 30 credit hours of coursework focused on AI technology, business strategy and leadership. Many MBA programs require two years of study, and even accelerated versions rarely take less than 12 months.
In addition to the 10-month accelerated option, the MBA offers a traditional pathway that can be completed in about 18 months. Students take one course at a time, either online or on campus. Both pathways can be tailored to specific career goals through one of eight specialty tracks: Data analytics, Entrepreneurship and innovation, Healthcare administration, Human resources, Interdisciplinary studies, Management and leadership, Nonprofit leadership and management, and Project management.
The 10-month accelerated MBA, offered in an online format, is designed for high-achieving professionals seeking to expand their credentials through intensive six-week courses. The courses emphasize real-world application, the effective use of AI tools in business, project-based learning and faculty collaboration.
Dr. Jim Hiatt, dean of Trevecca’s Skinner School of Business, believes the condensed degree will allow more students to excel in business. He stated that Trevecca is meeting the need for a faster and more affordable master’s degree in business without sacrificing critical content.
Hiatt added that the affordability of an MBA can be an obstacle for many potential students, but it can be overcome through Trevecca’s reasonable price structure. He looks forward to helping students excel through this new program.
The first cohort for the new accelerated and traditional MBAs will begin in May. More information and enrollment details are available at Trevecca.edu/MBA10.
