Back when massive open online courses (MOOCs) were new, I (Laurie) started a project to complete the equivalent of an MBA, using free courses. Platforms such as Coursera and edX were making headlines, and when I learned that leading universities (including business schools) were distributing online courses for free, I was inspired to construct a business education rather than pay an exorbitant amount for a degree.
I called the project the “No-Pay MBA” and I blogged about it at www.NoPayMBA.com. I finished my business education in 2016, and wrote a book to guide others interested in doing a self-made MBA (Don’t Pay For Your MBA, HarperCollins, 2017).
After I started working for Class Central, I wondered how would I approach this project, given the wealth of new courses and tools that are now available?
When I was doing my No-Pay MBA, there were only a few business MOOCs available, so I basically signed up for all of them.
Fortunately or unfortunately, it would be impossible to do that today. More than 6,000 free business courses from numerous universities around the world are currently listed on Class Central.
Through my studies, I also came to believe that putting together an MBA-level education requires much more than simply ticking through a checklist of course topics. That’s partly because MOOCs differ from on-campus courses in scope, length, and rigor; and partly because creating your own MBA offers a tremendous opportunity to tailor the curriculum to your needs.
My advice: start by learning some foundational business concepts in introductory-level courses, then develop some general business skills, and finally, dive deep in an area of concentration.
Below is a sample course list that follows this advice, drawn entirely from business schools in U.S. News & World Report’s top ten. I cross referenced the U.S. News list with Class Central’s database to find around 90 courses from these top schools:
- University of Pennsylvania (Wharton)
- Northwestern University (Kellogg)
- Stanford University
- University of Chicago (Booth)
- Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Sloan)
- Dartmouth College (Tuck)
- Harvard University
- New York University (Stern)
- Columbia University
- Yale University
- University of California, Berkeley (Haas)
I used only courses from these schools not because there aren’t great MOOCs from business schools lower down in U.S. News’ ranking (the full course catalog of the University of Illinois’s iMBA, for example), but simply because A) I had to cut down the number of courses somehow, and B) I wanted to demonstrate that the content for a top-tier MBA is there for the taking.
Note: The curriculum below is a pretty solid MBA program. However, it doesn’t include every topic that might be included in an MBA. Some notable gaps: project management, micro- and macroeconomics, and business ethics. It’s also rather light on operations management.
Another Note: While many of these courses do involve fees, all of them can be audited for free, either in full or in part. If you’re new to online learning, take a look at our Beginner’s Guide.
