The Graduate Programs at GWSB for Veterans
There is a special bond between the George Washington School of Business and active duty service members and
military veterans. You bring leadership and experience that adds value to programs and fellow students. As a leader in
business education, we provide new tools and knowledge to help you excel at what's next.
School of Business
The George Washington University
School of Business offers six MBA
programs, five Specialized Master of
Science programs, and a doctoral
program. Emphasizing ethical
leadership and sustainable business
practices, the programs are taught
by exceptional faculty who are
actively engaged in global business.
Our location near the White House,
the World Bank and the IMF provides
extraordinary opportunities to interact
with people and institutions that
directly impact society. We advance
the frontiers of knowledge through
more than a dozen research centers
and institutes, studying a full spectrum
of relevant business topics, from
international trade to sustainability
to financial literacy. This is where it is
all happening - at the Intersection of
Business and Society.
"You have a proven capacity to lead and inspire others, and you've acquired and tested that
capacity often in situations of extreme complexity and often in cases of dire emergency. Your
experience enriches the classroom and campus environments and enriches the education
of your fellow students because you bring a unique perspective to them. Your commitment
to service, which you've also demonstrated in such an extraordinary way, is an inspiration to
students, and I think strengthens their own commitment to service."
President Steven Knapp of George Washington University
at the Student Veterans of America National Conference
