Your Destination…Success!
 The Smith experience is like no other. It’s a place that produces leaders who
are grounded in proven business principles, yet adaptive and receptive to new information…new
ways of thinking. Unprecedented changes in the business world require the ability
to meet the demands of an increasingly dynamic and complex marketplace. Being able
to apply business strategy and principles learned in the classroom to your career
is essential.
Smith immerses you in the world of business in a way few schools can match. You’ll
gain an understanding of how key aspects of an organization function in successful
businesses, well-developed leadership, quantitative and analytical skills, strong
persuasive communications skills, an understanding of the role of business in society
and the ethical challenges of global business, how to work effectively with teams
and a mastery of the core aspects of business: marketing, information systems, accounting,
operations management, finance, and strategy.
The Smith MBA features a traditional, yet innovative curriculum that allows students
to gain an appreciation for Globalization, Entrepreneurship and Technology (GET)
- the three drivers that are transforming business. Courses in these three areas
make up the Smith core curriculum. During your first year, you will choose one GET
Selective in each of these areas, allowing you the flexibility to customize your
program with GET courses that best meet your interests and career goals. And Smith
offers one of the widest selections of electives of any business school in the world.
Smith’s 21-month MBA program can be accelerated in a number of ways, providing
additional flexibility. And our global learning options broaden your knowledge and
experience base through international study programs that provide a first-hand look
at business operations around the world.
