The Michigan Ross Executive MBA delivers a top-tier MBA curriculum in a time-efficient model. Once a month for 21 months, you will convene with faculty and EMBA classmates for on-campus residencies. The curriculum will be augmented through distance learning throughout your time in the program. Exams are taken remotely; students enjoy the flexibility to take exams anytime during the three-day Friday-Sunday window.

EMBA on-campus residencies are typically held Friday through Saturday. Friday evenings are often used for group meetings, review sessions, speakers, and skill-building workshops.

In addition, EMBA students engage in extended residencies at the beginning of each program year. Programming is divided into five terms. The EMBA program begins in August, and commencement takes place 21 months later in April/May.

Quantitative Skills Workshop (QSW)

Participants whose analytical skills need refreshing are invited to take advantage of this video lecture series provided months in advance of the program. During the orientation residency, participants may attend a one-day QSW program, which covers more advanced material. A second optional QSW session is held later in the first semester.
