The World Executive MBA program is comprised of 52.5 credit hours delivered in a hybrid model of residencies and on-line coursework modules. The core curriculum centers on our values of ethics, leadership, globalization and teamwork. These values form the cornerstone of the program and are integrated throughout the curriculum
