The Executive Master of Business Administration (EMBA) prepares experienced managers, directors, senior leaders, and C-suite executives to make disciplined, evidence-based decisions and lead change with integrity. The EMBA includes instruction in management theory, human resources management and behavior, accounting and other quantitative methods, purchasing and logistics, organization and production, marketing, and business decision-making (CIP Code: 52.0201).
Education: IAU requires evidence of an earned bachelor degree in a related major or discipline. Other disciplines may be acceptable and shall be reviewed on a case-by-case basis, and they may require prerequisite courses. All degrees must be earned at an appropriately accredited institution or foreign equivalent. IAU understands the differing rigor of institutions and grading scales around the world, and IAU evaluates prior academic credentials within their own context. Exceptions shall be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
Professional Experience: IAU requires a minimum of 5 years of full-time professional experience in a senior, executive, or C-suite position. The ideal candidate should have a history of fostering development, creating and carrying out business strategies, and producing outstanding outcomes in a fast-paced and demanding setting.
