Online Learning

Making high-quality online learning easy for you.

Kelley’s Business of Medicine Physician MBA Program is an interactive education with online instruction that can take place anytime, anywhere. This flexibility in learning allows you to use nearly any mobile device throughout your busy day to do coursework.

We know how to make this easy for you because our faculty pioneered online business learning in the 1990s. In fact, the Kelley Online MBA is the #1 ranked online MBA program in the country (U.S. News & World Report, 2023; The Princeton Review, 2023; and Poets & Quants 2023.) 

The same expert faculty who teach traditional MBA students online also instruct students in the Physician MBA Program. You benefit by learning from the foremost trailblazers of online instruction.

We offer technology learning primers to ensure your success from the start. You’ll learn how to use prominent business tools, including Excel spreadsheets, so you and your physician peers start out on the same level. Even if years have passed since you last attended class, we’ll make sure you aren’t grappling with technology.

How online learning works.

You can expect 10–14 hours a week of on-demand online learning supported by your professor, including:

  • Class discussion forums
  • Readings
  • Videos
  • Real-time or recorded class sessions
  • Group meetings

Our online learning resources are available on demand, whenever they fit into your schedule. Unlike many online programs, we don’t require specific log-on times. This allows you to get to the work when you can.

Because course content is delivered in advance and can be accessed without an internet connection, you may work at your convenience—allowing you to plan your studies around existing professional and personal obligations. You’ll benefit from full-time instructional support throughout the program to ensure you are comfortable with select technology.
