During the final seven months of the program, the school's EMBA students conduct a consulting project for an international firm (this year's class is working with Sun Microsystems) and travel abroad to complete their research and report study findings in writing and orally to company executives.
The field study project begins in the winter term of the second year with an intensive four-day residential to introduce EMBAs to the client firm. Through presentations by company experts, students gain information about the client company and the project. Drawing upon the entire body of MBA coursework, EMBAs gather data, examine the industry, conduct thorough analysis of the company, and generate recommendations. As an integral part of the study, each student travels abroad either early in the study to collect data, or later to present results to the client firm. Faculty and some alumni accompany the group presenting the study findings.
