Program Format

Monthly in-person classes at our Northern Virginia campus provide a distraction-free environment for full engagement. These sessions include robust discussions, engaging presentations, and hands-on collaborative group projects and activities. You will have the opportunity to meet face-to-face with members of your cohort and program faculty, strengthening the relationships that are so crucial to your UVA student experience.

Between sessions, you will collaborate through online platforms like Brightspace and Zoom. These live virtual class sessions are typically held mid-week, ensuring continuous engagement and learning.

In-person coursework for the M.S. in the Management of IT Program is delivered in a working professional-friendly format at UVA’s Sands Family Grounds, located in the Rosslyn area of Arlington, VA. This prime location places our students at the forefront of Arlington’s rapidly growing hub for technology and AI innovation—an area historically known for its influential role in government and defense. 

Housed on the top floors of a LEED-EB Gold-certified 31-story office tower and offering stunning, panoramic views of Washington, DC, the 40,000-square-foot location offers a fresh and convenient setting for MSMIT students to network and learn with other UVA graduate business students. In addition to the MSMIT, Sands Family Grounds is also home to McIntire’s M.S. in Business Analytics Program, offered in partnership with the UVA Darden School of Business.

As you develop your IT and management skills alongside a cohort of diverse and driven professionals, you’ll build meaningful relationships through collaborative, team-based coursework and built-in networking opportunities. The program’s class sizes are small enough that you’ll get to know everyone, while at the same time, you’ll gain access to a diverse network of contacts with an array of unique backgrounds and job functions. Together, you’ll broaden and deepen your knowledge through a transformational educational experience and, in turn, be able to reap the rewards of a robust industry network for years to come.
