Where it doesn’t require intensive research and you simply take regular classes for 1 year or 2 year maybe.
And get a masters degree?
I’m interested in areas like business or anthropology.
Thanks!
Just curious . . . why would you want this sort of MA?
It seems that you maybe want the credential and not to build crucial skills, but maybe I’m wrong.
In any event, try honing one research skill of googling and type in “one-year mba programs”. It seems that Lehigh has one.
Here is a NYT article about one-year programs; it’s old but there are starting points here that with a minimum of research you might find what you’re looking for. (Hint: google the name of school listed and ‘MBA’ and your information should come up in about 0.23 seconds if that’s short-enough time) – http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/03/education/edlife/time-management-one-year-mbas.html
The same process could be used for Anthro, but seriously I cannot fathom why anyone would think it’s okay to create an MA in anthro with only classroom work and no research. Boggles the mind and I personally wouldn’t trust the program. It sounds like a degree mill to pull in money and produce little education: Trump U may have such a program.
MBA’s do not require research.
There are many MAs in academic areas that are course-based and don’t require research; the thing is you have to visit the websites of those programs in order to find them.
A better question is why you want one of those programs, and why you are looking so broadly. The kind of career that would want an MBA or MS in business is quite different from one that would require or recommend an MA in anthropology, so my guess is that if you are considering both fields equally (or worse, just generally looking for any 1-2 year MA program that has no research) then you probably either don’t need graduate school or aren’t ready for it yet.
