you theory and gives you opportunities to practice new business thinking by tackling issues facing
some of the world’s most innovative companies through the Hult Business Challenge. Students
choose either the Corporate Track, where they’ll solve a current problem facing a leading

in just one year, and then have the option to specialize and earn a second Master degree in a further
six months. That means you can earn two degrees in the time it would take to complete only an
MBA at many traditional business schools.

global careers without taking time out from work. Complete your part-time degree over long
weekends to maximize the use of your time. Our innovative curriculum allows you to enhance your

IESE Business School Full-time MBA

MBA Programs
Share:

Profile
IESE’s full-time MBA is a flexible duration program that can be completed in either 15 or 19
months. It is an experience that sharpens your technical and leadership skills with global, cross-
cultural learning opportunities.
Whether you choose to opt for the 15 months or the 19 months duration, the program will be divided
in core courses and electives. The first three terms are common to all students and represent a deep
dive into business essentials, allowing you to hone new competencies, build your network and forge
friendships with your classmates.
If you choose the accelerated 15 months track, you will have classes during the summer months
instead of doing a summer internship. Those summer classes will be a mix between core classes
shared by all and electives. If you go for the traditional 19 months format, your second year will be
all about electives. There are currently more than 130 electives to choose from – an unrivalled
opportunity to customize your academic load according to your business interests. Combined with
international opportunities such as our global exchange program (available only for 19 months
students) and overseas modules, this is the moment to build the MBA that is right for you.
At IESE we use the Case Method. We find it to be the most effective way to leverage each
classroom’s immense diversity. All our cases are taught in alignment with Harvard Business
School’s teaching method, which enables discussion of real business situations from a general
management perspective under the guidance of world class faculty.
IESE aims to have a positive and lasting impact on your personal and professional future.

Profile
The Suffolk MBA is highlighted by a driving focus on experiential learning that will serve to
connect students to Boston's world-class industries in Biotech, Finance, Healthcare, and High-
Tech/Start-Ups. The 49-credit program is divided into four blocks, sequentially building connections
and core business knowledge centered on the four cornerstone courses: Contextualizing: From
Boston to the World; Understanding Business Fundamentals; Constructing the Big Picture; and
Leading and Implementing Change. Additionally, a required "Immersion" will allow students to
travel to world-class industries in the United States or internationally—immersing themselves in new
cultures and working on real-life case studies in leading globally-focused corporations. The
profoundly experiential curriculum will provide the opportunity for Suffolk MBA students to
leverage the Sawyer Business School's location in the heart of downtown Boston, providing the key
preparation needed for global leadership opportunities upon graduation.

The Suffolk Executive MBA (EMBA) is a 16-month, Saturday-schedule program designed for
mid-career and senior-level executives. Founded in 1975 as the first EMBA degree in New England,
the program features a cohort structure promotes professional development in a team-centric and
collaborative environment. The EMBA curriculum extends well beyond traditional business. You'll
learn how to handle conflict, deal with ethical issues, develop emotional intelligence, analyze
leadership styles, build consensus, and solve problems strategically. Your studies will culminate in a
capstone project where you'll spend four months designing and researching a topic that applies your
coursework to your interests and career goals. You'll graduate from the program ready to leverage
your experiences to lead across organizations and borders.

Simon MBA: More than a credential.
Share:

Profile
Business degree programs at Simon are designed to help you achieve a new level of clarity: about
how analytical frameworks drive success in business; about what it takes to collaborate and manage
in the contemporary, global workplace; and about your professional growth and goals. It’s the
understanding and confidence you need to make the right decisions and lead no matter what the
business forecast.
We’re proud of offer degree programs with an unabashedly analytical bias. We’ll show you how a
deep understanding of economics, combined with an intensive quantitative focus, gives you a
cohesive, evidence-based approach to decision making.
The Simon student community is small by design and intentional in its inclusiveness. In your classes
and collaborative experiences, relationships matter—and an extraordinary array of perspectives are
always close by.
We believe a rigorous business degree program can and should be eye-opening on many levels. A
Simon degree is about more than getting a respected credential. It’s about having the time and
encouragement to reflect, refine, and take risks—to gain a more profound understanding of what
business means in the world, the leader you can be, and the impact you can make.
