Global Network Hosts First Global Network Week for EMBA Students

June 13, 2016

More than 180 executive MBA students from across the Global Network for Advanced Management will participate in the first Global Network Week for EMBA students from June 13 to 17.

More than 180 executive MBA students from across the Global Network for Advanced Management will participate in the first Global Network Week for EMBA students from June 13 to 17.

The students will participate in modules hosted by seven network schools, covering topics including “The Future of Food” (UCD Smurfit), “Digital Transformation” (IE Business School), and “Germany: Technological Innovation, ‘Mittelstand’, Entrepreneurship” (ESMT Berlin).

While EMBA students have been able to participate in Global Network Week in the past, these specialized offerings are tailored for what mid-career professionals may be currently encountering in their fields while also providing them the opportunity to network and collaborate with fellow EMBA students.

“EMBA Global Network Week provides Yale MBA for Executives students with a truly meaningful international experience,” said Ian Rogan, Yale SOM’s assistant dean for the MBA for Executives program. “Challenging our students with a rigorous academic program in a new geography that includes project work with learning teams consisting of EMBA students from a network of the world’s leading business schools is distinct and better prepares our students to succeed in an increasingly interconnected and complex world.”
