Staying ahead of the competition in today’s business world requires up-to-date information, sharp decision-making skills, and effective networking. At the University of New Haven, the Master of Business Administration Program for Executives (EMBA) confers all of these essentials, making it the program of choice for full-time managers and professionals in Connecticut. The program is distinguished from all others by its flexible schedule, convenient location, experienced faculty, real-world curriculum, individualized career coaching, and powerful alumni network.

Flexibility and convenience make the program unique. It is the only one in Connecticut that meets once a week, on a weekday or Saturday, and is structured to allow full-time managers and professionals to earn the degree without career interruption in just 21 months (weekday option) or 24 months (Saturday option). New classes begin in February and September of each year.

UNH has offered the program in Stamford since 1980. Classes meet in a prime downtown location, in the heart of the city’s business and financial district, an added convenience for those working in the Stamford/Danbury area or New York City. (The program is also available at our main campus in West Haven.)

Our faculty members, distinguished scholars and leading practitioners from the business world, have extensive academic and real-world business experience. They provide our students with a comprehensive perspective on business in both theory and practice. The program’s teaching methods stress interactive learning, and this approach is powerfully enriched by the shared experience, energy, and imagination of the students themselves.

This past June, for example, Roger Ratzenberger and Don Williams, both recent graduates, achieved the highest possible status, that of grand champion, in the 2005 Business Strategy Invitational. An online simulation in which students from all over the world compete against one another in managing a fictional company, the competition is an extension of a business simulation course taken during the last semester of the program. Ratzenberger and Williams beat out hundreds of competitors from over 200 universities worldwide to finish as two of only ten grand champions internationally, an achievement of which their university is understandably very proud.

Such real-life application of what is learned creates an immediate springboard for lasting success. Students continue to work while learning, gaining knowledge and insight both from faculty and from each other. What is learned is brought back into the workplace and implemented. Those who complete the program have mastered the fundamentals of business-world success.

Explore the opportunity to earn your MBA in just 21 to 24 months, attending just one day a week. We have designed our program for busy professionals who want the benefits of the degree without having to give up work and family.
