Does anyone have any experience with business schools in the Tampa/Sarasota area? I have looked around online and seen USF, UT, and a few others. I am primarily looking for an MBA. Preferably something I could do at night/weekend. If anyone has any experience in this area please let me know.

I though you wanted to go into the Marine Industry?
What do you need to know about business and finance in that line of work? :D

A friend of mine got an MBA from UT several years ago. She was the smartest girl I ever met. She had a full time job, partied like a rock star and still was student of the year at UT.

Check out Stetson, I think they are in the Tampa area.. Stetson is in St Pete. Bring some long green to enroll there. The one here may just be the law college. I think the main campus is in Deland.

I am primarily interested in the marine field yet I am more into the business end then I am the pure technical end. I think adding an MBA to my resume could do nothing but help...not to mention after Webb any thing feels like a part time job.

Chris, University of South Florida (http://www.usf.edu/default/) in Tampa has the best and probably the toughest College of Business Admistration (http://www.coba.usf.edu/) in Florida. In the end, you won't have a prestigious MBA like from Harverd Business School, but all an all, it will be a pretty darn good MBA.
