Executive MBA

Curriculum

A major strength of the LeBow Executive MBA program is the focus on leadership development. At the core of this instruction is a team-based learning approach. Designed to help enhance the transfer of experiences, each student will progress through the program in diverse teams of three to five members, working on as many as 20 different assignments throughout the program. Both orientation sessions involve team building exercises in which students work together to achieve common goals.
