What Is an Executive MBA?

An executive MBA is a business degree for experienced professionals. Like a traditional MBA, the EMBA teaches the business skills you need to advance in your career. It’s designed for executives who are further along in their careers and takes place in a format that allows you to continue working.

EMBA Program Overview

As you explore other top executive MBA programs, you'll discover that Chicago Booth is different. We are the first United States business school to have campuses on three continents. Whichever campus you choose, you will have access to the same courses, the same distinguished Chicago Booth faculty, and the same prestigious MBA degree. Although you apply to a primary campus (Chicago, London, or Hong Kong), you take classes at each of our global campuses during international session weeks. Here's how the program takes shape:
