EMBA students in class

The Drexel EMBA course curriculum was built from the ground up specifically to streamline the time you’ll be expected to be on campus taking classes. By incorporating online studies, reading and preparation time into your EMBA schedule, you can easily integrate the curriculum into your work and personal life.

The EMBA calendar below represents the entire six-quarter calendar – 16 months of study delivered over three calendar years.

Integrated term themes include: 

  • Strategic Value and Financial Impact
