The Carroll School of Management at Boston College focuses on limiting class sizes amongst its graduate specializations to help provide customized attention to students. The school stresses core values of honesty and integrity, mutual respect, pursuit of excellence, and personal accountability, and requires all M.B.A. to volunteer in the community.  All full-time M.B.A. students are required to complete a specialization area, such as Asset Management, Corporate Finance, or Global Management.

Along with a full-time program, the Carroll School also offers an evening M.B.A., Ph.D. programs, and graduate degrees in accounting and finance. Joint degrees are offered in conjunction with the Boston College Law School, the Graduate School of Social Work, the School of Theology and Ministry, the William F. Connell School of Nursing, the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, and the Lynch School of Education.

There are more than 34,000 Carroll graduates working around the globe, and some of the notable alumni include Ronald Logue, chairman and former CEO of financial services firm State Street Corp., and Denis O’Brien, chairman of mobile phone network provider Digicel.
