The faculty for the Duke Goethe Executive MBA program will be drawn from the top-ranked faculty who teach in Fuqua's award-winning and internationally ranked Executive MBA programs and from the faculty who teach at Frankfurt in one of the most renowned economics and business administration faculties in Germany. Both of these faculties are known not only for their research and knowledge generation in their chosen fields of inquiry, but also for their expertise in presenting this knowledge in a logical and understandable fasion. Moreover, since the best business education is a fusion of academic learning and real-world experience, each faculty member teaching in the Duke Goethe Executive MBA program is committed to making sure there is substantial interaction and discussion among the participants.

The Duke faculty are particularly well known for their leadership in designing innovative educational programs. They currently deliver business education around the world using the Duke distance learning platform. They are also famous for their emphasis on collaboration both in the classroom and in their research.

Frankfurt faculty have long been known for their ability to breed and train leaders. More business faculty now teaching in German business schools received their degrees from Frankfurt than from any other German institution. Many of Germany's business leaders either currently teach at Frankfurt University as adjunct professors or used to serve on the faculty. In addition, many of the faculty's alumni are on the boards of internationally known companies.

The faculty from both institutions are committed to your success and to continuing interaction inside and outside of the classroom, in person, online and beyond your graduation.
