I received an email from a person applying for a position, who stated on his Resume that he had an MBA from the AGU (DETC Accredited) In checking the website at http://www.agu.edu, I could not find any reference to an MBA program. A call to their offices brought a nervous response, saying only, 'I think we used to run this program' and please send us an email with the persons details. A question for the discussion members, Does anyone know if or and when the MBA program was run at the AGU, and if it was, could this have been before they received their accreditation? Now if it was run before the accreditation date, then what is the value of this persons MBA, given the AGU no longer run the program? Feedback...please. Thanks. John Roberts Ph.D (London ICST)
Looking at archived versions of the AGU web site, it appears the MBA program was available in 1997 but is not listed among the degree programs on the cached web site of February, 1998. DETC shows initial accreditation for AGU was granted in 1998. AGU degree programs - 1997 AGU degree programs - 1998
