Coles College of Business Executive MBA

Cohort and TeamFormat

A true leader in business must be able to bring together and make use of the talents of all types of people, thus, teamwork and cohort learning are the foundation of our program. Collaboration, decision-making, resourcefulness, ingenuity – these skills are essential as a springboard to further success. Team members learn from each other, form strong networking ties, and mentor each other throughout the KSU EMBA program. Because of the importance of teamwork and networking, we place emphasis on selectivity. It’s reflected in the average age of our students – 39, with 14 years of work experience and an average of seven years management experience. A strong support system like this allows us to accept applicants with virtually any undergraduate degree, thus bringing wider perspectives and experiences into the program.
