| In today’s highly competitive business environment, professionals often need more than just their strong backgrounds of professional experience to truly excel. The executive program for the Master of Business Administration (MBA) is designed for mid-career and senior level decision makers and emphasizes the development of individual leadership, team building, and decision-making capabilities. The curriculum provides a global perspective on the crucial issues facing businesses today and incorporates comprehensive leadership and cultural assessments, as well as executive team coaching. Training workshops and simulations, developed and delivered in conjunction with UMUC’s National Leadership Institute, provide experience and practice meeting leadership challenges. In the capstone project, small teams develop international strategic and operational plans for organizations looking to expand into new foreign markets. An international study trip is also required. |
