All MBA programs provide value in terms of educational content. But The Duke MBA - Global Executive program provides value to students in many ways.
Students learn from each other as well as professors.
Whether discussing issues with learning teams, debating issues in residency classes, or reading peer comments on electronic bulletin boards, the diversity of cultural backgrounds and functional area expertise in the Global Executive student body provides a rich, rewarding learning perspective. Students use cutting-edge technology to learn about educational concepts as well as how to manage across time and space. In order to realize the true value of the program, students must commit to adopting a global perspective of intellectual curiosity and must be prepared to participate fully in all aspects of the program. The defining element about the Global Executive program is the way in which academic concepts are studied, learned, understood and translated into the workplace in a relevant way.
