Executive MBA

The Executive MBA (EMBA) format is designed for working professionals with a minimum of 5 years of progressive career experience. You do not have to be at an executive level to participate in the EMBA program. Our EMBA students average 13 - 15 years of work experience and are seeking a MBA that specifically focuses on the knowledge and skill sets they need to advance their careers or move into new career paths. The Executive MBA format also offers a more enhanced level of service than most MBA programs. Every Georgia Tech EMBA student is assigned a Program Manager who will help ensure all administrative forms and tasks are completed so your transition into the EMBA program is as seamless as possible. They will also support you throughout your EMBA journey and will be your primary point of contact during the 17 months of the program.

Executive, Evening, and Full-time refer to the format of the classes/program, not to the MBA degree itself. It is important to note that students who enroll in the Executive MBA Program earn MBA degrees, not “Executive MBA” degrees. Upon completion of the Executive MBA program, students are awarded either an “MBA - Global Business” degree or an “MBA - Management of Technology” degree, depending on which degree specialty they select. Georgia Tech Executive MBA program is a 17-month MBA program with classes held on selected Friday evenings and Saturdays, generally in an every-other-weekend format. There are no Sunday classes.

Classes are held in the state-of-the art Huang Executive Education Center in the Scheller College of Business, located at the corner of West Peachtree Street and Fifth Street in Technology Square.

Qualified candidates have several years of professional work experience (a minimum of five years is required) with a history of professional advancement and leadership. Students' personal and professional backgrounds vary, bringing diversity to the classroom experience.

Each degree program has approximately 55-65 students per cohort, for a total of approximately 110-130 students per admission year.
