Convenient schedule, accelerated timeline.
Designed to cater to your busy schedule, the Fox EMBA program holds classes only one weekend a month (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) for sixteen months. While overnight stays are not required, students who wish to stay overnight on Friday and Saturday may do so at no additional cost.
The sixteen-month Fox EMBA program begins with a short residency in mid-January (the only mandatory overnight stay). During this four-day intensive program, you’ll get to know your fellow students and faculty and prepare for the work ahead.
The first eight months you’ll focus on analyzing and solving business problems, covering topics like:
- Accounting, economics and statistics
- Strategic management and leadership
- Cost analysis, information management and finance
The second half of the program is designed so that you can build on what you’ve learned with course work in:
- Marketing
- Operations management
- Global strategic planning
Also during the second half of the program, your class will embark on a week-long international field study where you’ll get the opportunity to examine foreign business principles and network with company executives abroad.
Finally, you’ll end your rigorous study with a capstone course in Enterprise Strategy and Consultation.
