Abstract
This study intended to measure the level of non-agreement in the perceived MBA curriculum content between students and industry. Generally, the MBA curriculum content had a moderate non-agreement between students and industry. Specifically, wide non-agreement existed in consulting and manufacturing, while moderate non-agreement existed in finance/accounting. Lastly, a narrow non-agreement in technology and product/services existed. The Bland and Altman Agreement Test revealed non-agreement in the MBA curriculum content between the students and industry in consulting, finance and accounting, technology, manufacturing, products, and services.
