The Ross EMBA borrows one of the distinctive innovations from the school's full-time MBA program: a mandatory consulting project with a corporate sponsor. Dubbed the Executive Multidisciplinary Action Projects (ExecMAP), the projects allow student teams to help resolve real business challenges, often in international or entrepreneurial settings. It's a unique feature of this EMBA which doesn't exist in most other programs.
Ross' EMBA program will soon be available on the West Coast beginning in the fall of 2012.
