At Brown Mackie College - Miami, our programs are designed
with the practical student in mind. School is a means to an
end--the way to get the skills and training you need to
begin your career or take the next step up in your current job.
Our courses are thoroughly oriented to the real working world. We
focus on the development of technical proficiency in your field
as well as the overall professional approach expected in
business, industrial, or medical environments.
Brown Mackie College - Miami makes it easy to take classes.
We offer sessions in the day or the evening--whichever suits
you best. You can work school around the other demands of your
life--whether it's your family, a job, or other pursuits
that are important to you.
One of the many student-friendly features of Brown Mackie College
- Miami is our unique pace. Rather than juggle three
classes concurrently each quarter the way full-time students at
traditional colleges do, Brown Mackie students focus on one
course at a time. Each class is offered at an accelerated pace,
lasting one month. No switching gears between different subjects;
no pulling all-nighters to study for three or four final exams at
once. At the end of each month, you have another set of credits
under your belt and you're ready to move on to the next course.
You can start taking classes as soon as you're ready.
