The Michigan Advantage

True business success depends on key leaders having the strategic skills and vision necessary to attain organizational and personal goals.  The Executive MBA (EMBA) Program at the Stephen M. Ross School of Business provides executives with the necessary tools and perspectives to lead their organizations into the future.  The program's highly applied curriculum is built around a unique blend of analytical foundations, solution-based courses and action learning opportunities:

• Its intense focus on leadership emphasizes the development of leaders capable of solving real-world business challenges.
   
• Its results-oriented curriculum promotes learning and collaboration across disciplinary boundaries with outstanding peers and faculty. 
   
• Its once-a-month format also allows busy executives to balance the pursuit of an MBA with commitments at work and at home.

With over 75 years of experience in advanced business education, the Ross School of Business is consistently recognized as one of the world's premier business schools and an unparalleled development partner when it comes to business leadership.  The Wall Street Journal has ranked Ross among the top business schools in the nation since 2002, and specifically ranked the EMBA Program #6 in the world in 2008.  U.S. New & World Report has recognized Michigan's Executive MBA program among the best of any U.S. public institution.  The 2007 BusinessWeek ranking reaffirmed the program's #4 worldwide ranking.
