Fuqua’s challenging academic program gives executives an edge in the global marketplace.
We strive to weave a leadership and global perspective into every executive MBA program at Fuqua. Each program begins with the fundamentals of business and ends with your choice of electives. Elective courses are largely determined by student interest. Elective offerings, therefore, include a constantly changing selection of courses that address contemporary business issues.
Fuqua faculty employ innovative research, information technology and a solid teaching methodology to ensure that progressive learning takes place. The classroom experience is based on the theory that learning occurs in a cycle, requiring a balanced combination of presentation, observation, conceptual thinking and experimentation. Therefore, ample class discussions and hands-on team projects complement lectures and presentations. In addition, computer simulations and case studies allow students to apply learning by doing.
Our faculty are committed to changing the face of business education globally, starting with our own programs. Our faculty are preeminent scholars recognized worldwide for their excellent research and teaching. Many consult with corporations around the world, bringing real-life business issues and fresh perspectives to the classroom to create a world-class center for learning.
