Student Experience
Discover Life as an Eller MBA
MBA Student Association (MBASA)
A master of business administration (MBA) is a serious investment that enhances your career, life and community. MBA degrees shape future business leaders with the communication, technical, leadership and managerial skills necessary to succeed in today’s rapidly-evolving business settings.
Eller Military Community
We welcome several veterans into the Eller MBA program each year. These students come from various military branches and appreciate the welcoming community. Because of our small class sizes, veterans easily connect with other veterans and their classmates.

MBA students have access to clubs and campus chapters of national associations such as:
- NAWMBA
- Net Impact Club
- Lean-In Circle
- American Marketing Association (AMA)
- MBA Women International
- Net Impact—Students for Responsible Business
Living in Tucson
If you love sunshine, ideal weather and a city that's neither too big nor too small, Tucson offers a location that's hard to beat. The College is situated in the heart of Tucson, Arizona, with a metro population near one million people.
Tucson is less than 120 miles from Phoenix, the fifth-largest city in the nation, with a population of roughly 1.3 million. It is also just 60 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border and only 200 miles from the beach at Rocky Point on the Sea of Cortez. Surrounded by mountains rising to 9,000 feet (yes, there's skiing in winter, usually!), with an average high/low temperature of 82/54° F and roughly 350 days of sunshine each year, Tucson offers an ideal climate for year-round outdoor activities.
Strong public and private partnerships between state and local governments, the University of Arizona and a vibrant business community have built a foundation for economic development and entrepreneurship in Tucson over the last decade. Tucson’s high-tech sector has attracted more than 1,200 high-tech companies to the city and has contributed significantly to Tucson’s strong and growing economy.
