The University of Chicago Graduate School of Business was the first school in the world to introduce the Executive MBA (EMBA), which was launched in 1943 as an MBA program for professionals with extensive work experience. Since then, the EMBA is often used in the U.S. and Europe to distinguish programs for seasoned veterans of business from standard MBA programs. While admission to MBA programs does not necessarily require working experience at some institutions, the EMBA, by definition, must.
Following the lead of other top business schools around the world, we debuted our own EMBA program in 2003: the first of its kind in Japan. The program is designed for professionals who aim to become core members of their companies and who have at least 8 years of work experience (recommended 15 years). Since our school is a weekend graduate school for professionals, even the busiest of C-suite level executives and managers are able to participate in this program.
