A Global Executive MBA
Designed for high-potential individuals ready to reach new heights, the Katz Executive MBA Worldwide program prepares people to lead organizations with confidence. As a truly global program, we operate classes across three continents: in North America (Pittsburgh, United States), South America (São Paulo, Brazil), and Europe (Prague, Czech Republic). Students learn as part of an international cohort. They travel to each location and practice international business through our Global Executive Forums.
Harnessing the intellectual capital of the University of Pittsburgh, our program is taught by professors internationally respected for their research and consulting. They've created a management-focused curriculum that encompasses the business concepts and analytical tools used by senior executives. Built for working professionals, our program is structured to accommodate demanding schedules. Our students typically graduate in less than two years.
Established in 1972, the Katz EMBA Worldwide program is one of the very first in the world; today we're among the most innovative. We are a Top 10 program among U.S. public institutions and ranked No. 26 overall in the United States and No. 62 overall in the world (Financial Times, 2012).
