Master of Business Administration - 36 credits
The Davenport Executive MBA Program is
designed for experienced,
mid-to-upper level business professionals who want to engage in a comprehensive graduate business program. The EMBA curriculum focuses on taking executives to the next level by developing a stronger set of decision making capabilities, leadership skills, values perspective, and knowledge with which to lead their organizations.
Admission to the Executive MBA program is competitive.
We seek highly-motivated individuals wishing to accelerate their career growth. Once students are admitted into the program, they become part of a cohort. This means the same group of students goes through the program together. The cohort experience allows for a sense of community among classmates as they study, network and support each other.
The EMBA is a
21-month program that begins once a year. The program meets for
three weekends in each seven-week session. Classes are held on
Friday nights and Saturdays. This unique schedule accommodates the busy schedule of executives who want to maintain career momentum while balancing professional and personal responsibilities. The Executive MBA is
currently offered in Grand Rapids and Livonia.
