Business Administration: Global M.B.A.
Program Overview
In the first year of the program, you will work in a cohort of 45 classmates to complete a bold core curriculum focused on ethics, leadership, globalization and teamwork. A real-world project abroad with a company is a component of the program.
Our Global M.B.A. is immersed in values, rigorous in theory and experiential in practice. This is a program that prepares business leaders to act responsibly, lead passionately and think globally.
During their second year, our Global M.B.A. candidates pursue a flexible program of study, choosing among 12 knowledge domains: Accountancy; Decision Sciences and Operations Management; Environmental Policy and Management; Finance and Investments; Heath Services Administration; Human Resources Management; Information Systems Management; International Business; Management of Science, Technology, and Innovation; Marketing; Organizational Behavior and Development; Real Estate and Urban Development; Small Business/Entrepreneurship; Sport Management; Strategic Management and Public Policy; Supply Chain Management; Tourism and Hospitality Management. Students can adjust the pace of study so that they complete the program in 16 months, 19 months or 21 months.
The program is designed to complement each student’s professional and career goals, and it receives extensive support from the F. David Fowler Career Center. The center’s staff spends one day a week during the first module of the program to help students build individual career-management portfolios.
Global M.B.A. students can also take advantage of two of our speaker series that draw upon the expertise available within the Washington, D.C., metropolitan area.
