New name and strategy for Cornell-Queen's Executive MBA program

In January, Queen’s School of Business and the Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management at Cornell University announced the rebranding of their dual-degree program, originally known as the Cornell-Queen’s Executive MBA. The new name, Executive MBA Americas – A Cornell-Queen’s Partnership, better reflects the strategic move to jointly expand throughout the Americas while capitalizing on the regional strengths of both business schools.

The program is touted as being one of the most unique EMBA offerings in the world thanks to its “live and connected” learning experience delivered through videoconferencing to students located in boardroom learning centres in major cities across the U.S., Canada and Latin America. As part of the rebranding, the program’s curriculum now incorporates enhancements to leadership development coursework, experiential leadership opportunities and individualized coaching. Other initiatives include themed global business projects in which students work in teams to solve a variety of real world business challenges at prestigious global companies.
