    ..CMU's program will be the only online MBA with SAP emphasis.

    The program will include business, finance and management classes designed for graduate students to take leadership positions in the business arena. The 18-month accelerated program will be taught completely online in a cohort format that creates groups of students following set schedules together from start to finish...


    According to CMU's own press release, a 2-week residency is required for SAP training. This appears to be an interesting niche program.

    Great post...although I question the CMU's use of the word "niche".

    When SAP has penetrated 85% of the fortune 500, it's beyone a niche - and more a recognition of SAP's market saturation.

    Personally, I wonder if this isn't 5-10 years too late (back when Basis Admin/ABAP programming commanded top dollars)...and a 2-week bootcamp is barely an intro to SAP (IMO).

    That said, I'm all for MBA's knowing more about the technology (and perhaps orchestrating the offshore SAP staff making $25/hour).
