Terry College of Business

The C. Herman and Mary Virginia Terry College of Business is a constituent college of the University of Georgia, an R1: Doctoral research university in Athens, Georgia, United States. The business college offers undergraduate programs, MBA programs, specialized master's programs, and doctoral programs. It was founded as the first business school in the American South in 1912.

The Terry MBA is offered as a full-time degree on campus in Athens, as a part-time degree or Executive MBA in the Buckhead district of Atlanta, and a fully online MBA option was added in 2023.

All of the college's programs are accredited by AACSB International – the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.

In Athens, the Terry College offers an undergraduate program, four master's degrees (the Full-Time MBA, the Master of Accountancy, the Master of Marketing Research, and the Master of Science in Business Analytics), and eight doctoral degree tracks. It offers three online degrees: an MBA, a Master of Science in Business and Artificial Intelligence, and a Master of Professional Accountancy (MPAcc) for working professionals with non-accounting backgrounds. The Terry College also offers Executive MBA and Professional MBA programs at the Terry Executive Education Center in Atlanta.

The Terry College offers undergraduate majors in accounting, economics, finance, management, management information systems, marketing, real estate, risk management/insurance, and a co-major in international business. All UGA students who plan to pursue a bachelor's degree in business are initially admitted to the Terry College as intended-business majors. Students can apply to a Terry major once they meet all application eligibility requirements, typically during their second year at UGA.

Undergraduates can supplement their degree program with one or more certificates, which are proof of skills development offered in eight areas of specialization: actuarial science, entrepreneurship, FinTech, legal studies, music business, personal and organizational leadership, sustainability, and workforce diversity. There is also an academic minor in business available to UGA undergraduates.

The Terry Full-Time MBA degree program is taught on the Athens campus, with staff, team rooms, and classrooms headquartered in Correll Hall. The curriculum is delivered in four semesters. MBA students are encouraged to complete an internship during the summer semester between their first and second year. The MBA Career Management Center assists with internships, job placement, career coaching, and networking events.

The first-year core curriculum provides a solid foundation of management principles and business practices. Students focus their second-year curriculum on a choice of nine market-driven specializations and three additional areas of focus. A total of 61 credit hours are required for graduation, including 1 credit for community service.
