A total of five weeks – one-third of the program – is spent working with students from the other two campuses. During the second summer, students come together again for two weeks of electives at Harper Center on the university’s Hyde Park campus. During their first summer, they study together as part of the international sessions in Chicago, London, and Hong Kong, as well as at kick-off week in Chicago. Students from all three of Chicago’s campuses begin the program together at Gleacher Center, Booth’s downtown Chicago campus every June. They are all assembled in a cohort that takes the same subjects at the same time.Ī Core EMBA Component: Learning From A Wildly Diverse Group Of Experienced Pros Chicago admits 90 students at each location. The school offers the degree in two formats and three locations: weekends in Chicago or one-week-long sessions in Hong Kong and London.
Yet, despite the rise of competition, Chicago has more than held its own. Today, the Executive MBA Council, a trade group of schools with EMBA programs, boasts more than 200 member schools with well over 300 different Executive MBA programs. The school invented the Executive MBA format in 1943. The Wall Street Journal and Businessweek magazine, both of which stopped doing rankings of Executive MBA programs, were then in the game.Ĭhicago’s number one rank is no accident. When we first crunched the numbers in 2011, The Economist wasn’t ranking EMBA experiences. Rounding out this year’s top ten are Cornell and NYU, both locked in a tie for a rank of sixth, UT-Austin at eighth, Southern Methodist University’s Cox School at ninth, and finally Wharton in tenth place ( the entire ranking of 50 top EMBA programs).Ĭlearly, the biggest surprise this year is Wharton’s tepid showing our list, largely due to the fact that the school’s prestige EMBA program, with cohorts on the East and West coasts, isn’t even ranked by The Economist, and the school is edged out of first by rivals on both the U.S. Michigan was in sixth place back then, while UCLA was seventh. The biggest differences? Wharton was solidly number one, followed by Chicago, Northwestern, Columbia, and NYU Stern. That lineup is not all that different from our inaugural ranking back in 2011. The top five? Chicago, Northwestern, Michigan, Columbia, and UCLA. The Biggest Surprise: Wharton's Tepid Showing Future ranking stories will look at the best programs in Europe and Asia. Though both the FT and The Economist publish global lists, we’ve taken the liberty of narrowing this 2019 look at just the U.S. standalone offerings in this field, Poets&Quants has put together a composite ranking that equally weighs all three of the most followed EMBA rankings in the world.
