Through varied learning strategies, the Benedictine EMBA seeks to develop confidence in responding to the challenges associated with the larger management responsibilities or entrepreneurial opportunities. Befitting our Benedictine heritage, the program's faculty are committed to the full development of each student. Faculty work to help students recognize and draw upon their strengths while also addressing their weaknesses by experimenting with new ideas, perspectives and approaches to real-world situations. Courses and classroom experiences build upon one another to form a comprehensive foundation of business and entrepreneurial knowledge. The active learning environment prepares students for the realities of today's world where education is lifelong, and where those who have skills to adapt and learn rapidly will succeed.
Students bring their laptop computers to class.
Seating is executive style and group work is facilitated by break-out areas on each side of the auditorium. The setting enhances the interaction between students, faculty, and guest speakers which we believe is so important for a quality Executive MBA experience. In addition to bringing well known speakers into the classroom, case studies in every class and field projects in many classes are designed to bring the classroom to the real world. Students are encouraged to develop projects that provide value added returns to their current employers.
