Tuition and Fees
The total cost of the Executive MBA program is $57,500 including tuition and all fees, books, meals, and a conference on public policy and business. Program fees also subsidize the International Study Tour so that students can participate in this valuable global learning experience at a reduced cost.
A Class Schedule Tailored to the Needs of Working Professionals
Designed for the working professional, the Executive MBA is an 18-month accelerated program offering classes on Saturdays only. The delivery mode employs a "blended" learning method with two courses running concurrently (half days each) over 10 Saturdays; during the 10 weeks, 2 sessions are delivered in e-learning format. During the e-learning sessions, candidates will tackle projects tied to their professions, engage in online discussion and obtain feedback from each other and their professors. Essentially, we define blended learning as a mixture of face-to-face classes, online interaction, and directed study as we recognize that there is a considerable difference between contact hours and quality contact hours. While the most common EMBA schedule is 5 full-day classes spanning five weeks (alternate Fridays and Saturdays), our extensive experience using learning technologies led us to blended learning as as a more effective model.
A new cohort begins each September courses are sequenced so that every student will be equipped with a solid foundation in business concepts. Students must also be available to participate in the International Study Tour which takes place during the third semester of the program; this tour typically spans 5 business days.
