W. Cliff Oxford Executive MBA Programs
These are exciting times. Our EMBA program was recently named #7 in the world by BusinessWeek and #1 in the Southeast Region in the magazine’s ranking of all global Executive MBA degree programs. We were one of a select set of schools to lead in the development of this degree, and we will continue to set the standard for Executive MBA education.
- In 2003, we added the Modular EMBA program format which permits participants to attend from around the globe. Student experience 70% face-to-face and 30% distributed learning through this new hybrid learning format.
- In 2004, we became the first EMBA program ever to be named. W. Cliff Oxford, our benefactor, has made a significant statement about the value of his experience in our program through this funding, which enables us to shape the world’s most principled entrepreneurial leaders.
- In 2005, we moved into our newly-dedicated EMBA Suite, complete with two 75-seat classrooms, social space and separate break-out workrooms.
Our faculty stands tall among the brightest and best in the world. In our program, you will also learn from your classmates, whose qualifications place them among the most experienced and successful executives in any program in the world.
Our curriculum continuously evolves to remain on the cutting edge of business management thought and to best infuse the skills and values needed to succeed now and into the future. It’s the kind of intellectual capital that guarantees your investment will grow into significant future success.
