MBA Program
MBA Program
The MBA program kicks off with a two-day orientation featuring team building exercises, academic modules and career services workshops. During the first year, MBA students complete the core courses; the second year they focus on an area of emphasis (Entrepreneurship, Finance or Marketing), elective courses and an international trip.
Expert career coaches help students strengthen their career paths, transition into new industries or functions, and assess where skills can be improved to achieve career goals. Additional benefits include professional development workshops, employer recruiting events, career expos and alumni mentors. The College of Business Administration Graduate Student Association and MBA Alumni Association also provide a variety of valuable networking opportunities.
Executive MBA Program
Executive MBA Program
The LMU EMBA empowers students to build their capacity for leadership and strategy in a values-driven environment. Many graduates of the EMBA program advance to C-level positions within their companies. Classes are held on Saturdays via a hybrid format – a combination of online and in-person classes – at our beautiful campus in the heart of Los Angeles’ Silicon Beach. The program’s small classes, collaborative learning environment, personalized attention, active alumni network, focus on ethics and leadership, onboarding program, and international study component set LMU apart from other programs.
The EMBA’s unique onboarding program prepares students for a return to academia so they are ready to start classes with confidence. Experiential learning opportunities include a four-day orientation, Leadership Through Sailing experience, a trip to Sacramento to meet with state legislators and lobbyists, and a two-week journey overseas to major business centers to meet with business executives and understand firsthand how global business operates.
A distinguishing feature of the LMU EMBA is the individual guidance students receive from an executive coach and an alumni mentor. Combined with faculty, these coaches and mentors become part of a student’s “personal board of directors,” inspiring them to make bold decisions and gain a deeper understanding of their own personal talents, values and passions.
