Overview
For over 200 years, Georgetown University has welcomed aspiring leaders to our campus along the banks of the Potomac River. Offering unparalleled access to leaders in global business and policy, the Georgetown MBA program is part of one of the nation's most prestigious universities in one of the world's most influential cities. Our program is located in a state-of-the-art facility which opened in June 2009. This 179,000 square-foot building enables us to further excel in the quality of our teaching, research, student services, career management and connections to international business.
Community of Achievement
A collaborative culture, a supportive faculty, and access to an extensive alumni network are just some of the benefits that our community offers. Students know their professors as mentors, career advisers, and colleagues, and they gain a foundation in all core management disciplines, with an emphasis on the global, ethical and political environment of business. Georgetown students are known for their ability to conduct rigorous analysis, work extraordinarily well in teams and produce professional, high-quality results.
A Global Mindset
This global mindset is the essence of the Georgetown experience and is reflected in the tremendous international exposure of our student body. Whether it involves interaction with our diverse student body, taking courses with an international focus, or pursuing our partner programs with ESADE, Oxford University, or the Georgetown School of Foreign Service, you will be part of a community that is truly global. All students get a hands-on international learning experience through the Global Residency, in which they act as consultants on projects for international companies abroad. Recent Global Residency locations have included Dubai, Ho Chi Minh City, Johannesburg, Prague and Sao Paulo.
Emphasis on Leadership
With an emphasis on global business, innovation, and ethical decision-making, the Georgetown MBA program prepares students to be leaders of the future. Leadership skills are built through the curriculum as well as through mechanisms such as the McDonough School of Business Distinguished Leaders Speakers Series, an active Student Government Association and leadership opportunities in over 30 student organizations. The leadership abilities you develop at Georgetown will serve you well throughout your career, and we are proud that our alumni make an impact in leadership roles around the world.
Resources of a World Capital
Our proximity to prominent business, government, and non-profit leaders, make Washington, D.C. a premier location for learning. Our community’s strong ties to the wider world allow us to draw opinion leaders to campus on topics ranging from investment analyses to ethics in marketing. More than a city known for politics, monuments, museums, history and seven national sports leagues, Washington is a global business community - a great place to work and network.
