Smith’s program for working professionals is offered evenings and weekends at Smith campuses in Washington, D.C., Baltimore and Shady Grove (Rockville, Md.).

Smith’s part-time MBA program placed 15th for “post-graduate outcomes,” with students attributing the achievement of their career goals to their education at Smith, whether their goals were advancing a career with a current employer, or switching jobs or careers.
