Global Perspective

Today's global economy requires that Goizueta students have a powerful understanding of business on an international scale. That's why, during the course of the program, our Executive MBA students take part in Global Business Practices.

Emory Executive MBA students participate in Global Business Practices—a capstone global learning experience that exposes you to the complexities, opportunities, and challenges of the current business climate. Before you travel abroad, the class features instruction and conversations about the economies of the specific places you will visit. At the end of your Executive MBA experience, you will apply what you learned in the classroom by traveling and seeing firsthand how global companies develop and manage their international businesses.
