Why Ross?

What distinguishes the Executive MBA Program at the Ross School of Business from other outstanding EMBA programs? At Ross, we combine personalized leadership development with a sophisticated focus on strategic perspective.

The way we approach both leadership development and strategy is rooted in the Ross School’s unmatched ability to provide action-based learning opportunities to students. Action-based learning inspires us to connect business education to business practice in innovative ways. Read a message from Dean Robert J. Dolan about the benefits a Ross Executive MBA can bring to both individuals and sponsoring companies.

Our EMBA faculty deliver customized executive-level courses designed to produce real business results for real organizations. The once-a-month format attracts high-potential leaders from all over the world to our state-of-the-art campus in Ann Arbor. Nearly one-third of the candidates in a typical EMBA class were born outside North America. Most have more than 10 years of leadership experience. These proven leaders represent a variety of industries and bring individual expertise in marketing, finance, supply chain management, governance, and other disciplines.

Every Ross EMBA class is an extraordinary, tight-knit cohort of dynamic leaders. As lifelong members of that cohort, Ross EMBA graduates move through their careers with an incredibly strong network that offers professional and personal support based on a shared, transformative experience.

The Ross EMBA offers benefits that are both measurable and intangible to participants and organizations seeking to develop leadership talent.
