Strong Community

Learning in the Executive MBA program is a collaborative effort that involves the students and faculty. Program faculty are truly interested in the learning process and enjoy the opportunity to work closely with the students admitted to the program. This creates an experience in which faculty and students are partners in the learning process.

Each entering Executive MBA class goes through the program as a cohort, taking the same classes together with the same classmates for the entire two years. At the beginning of the first year, students are assigned to a project/study team that will work together throughout the first year of the program. These teams execute a wide range of projects both large and small. Each project is designed to develop the knowledge and skills of team members as they apply course content to real-world situations. Often, these projects involve real situations at program participants’ companies or organizations. New teams in the second year are formed to similarly enhance the learning process in year two.
