Description: A series of interactive modules maximize the benefits of the impressive work experience that Rutgers EMBAs bring to the classroom. For example the module, 'how to make effective presentations to venture capitalists/stock-holders/engineers/sales people, etc.,' is role-played with the EMBAs participating as the audience. Another example is the 2-week, 3-credit summer program conducted at Cambridge University (UK), London, Krakow and Vienna. The program is tailored to incorporate the Executives' professional backgrounds. For instance, the last trip focused on the role of the European Union on the IT and pharmaceutical sectors in the EU and in the US.
