Remember undergrad school? This isn’t like that. Designed for professionals who are already leaders in their companies, with weekend classes to fit your busy schedule, the Executive MBA is more like a business think tank. Put 30 smart business leaders in a room with high-caliber, top-ranked professors, and you get 18 months of “aha” moments. Highlights are class discussion, one-on-one leadership coaching, case methods and more, for an experience that will propel you to new heights.

Our Faculty
Our world-renowned faculty and expert leadership coaches work together to give you practical knowledge, a global perspective and personalized guidance.
What Sets Us Apart
Agile Strategic Leadership Model – We partner with Korn/Ferry to focus on 19 core competencies that are most relevant to professionals, in categories that relate to you, to others and to your organization.
Class Discussion – One of the advantages of the Executive MBA over a traditional MBA is that every single one of your classmates is a teacher. Each has valuable work experience that feeds into your classroom experience, and when you’re all sharing, discussing and asking questions, the value of each class increases tenfold.
Case Method – Our curriculum is based on case studies with context to apply the principles you learn in class to your own organization.
Classmates, Teams and Personal Attention – You’ll take all courses with the same classmates for the entire 18 months, and classes are small enough to give everyone attention. Many of our projects are team-based, so you’ll work closely with each of your classmates to get to know them even more.
Career Prospects
Our grads often enjoy strategic upgrades in their career trajectory. Whether within the same organization or in new opportunities, your new Executive MBA knowledge and experience gives you impressive credentials to increase your success.
