“The Boston University EMBA was a great investment for our company. We sent a high potential executive with limited profit and loss experience. She completed the program in a short period of time and came back to the business ready to take on more responsibility.
"We were able to move her immediately into a senior marketing role with P&L responsibility, and she performed at an extremely high level, achieving top quartile year-over-year sales increases in a very competitive market.”Mike Crosby, COO, Irving Oil
“Corporations have long known what business publications are now recognizing—that there is great and lasting value in the EMBA Program at Boston University's School of Management,” said Allen Questrom Professor and Dean Louis E. Lataif. “For many years, world-leading companies have sent their high potential managers to be exposed to our faculty and our innovative approach to fusing the art, science, and technology of business."
“Our strong rankings reflect the strength of our program design, deliberately formulated to transform experienced managers into successful leaders” said EMBA Faculty Director and Professor Susan Samuelson. “Employers see great value in having students apply what they've learned over the weekend in the workplace on Monday morning,” said Janice Dolnick, Director of the EMBA.
The two primary criteria that affect the rankings are average salary three years after graduation and percent increase in average salary after completing the program. Faculty ranking for research and publications is also a factor.
