Americas MBA for Exevcutives

Global businesses are increasingly aligning their operations throughout the Americas. The new Vanderbilt Americas MBA for Executives recognizes this growing need among companies and students for business instruction focused more deeply around issues specific to the Americas markets.

Like the traditional Vanderbilt MBA program for executives, the Americas MBA is highly selective and offers a full 60-credit-hour Vanderbilt MBA. As a Vanderbilt Americas MBA student, your first 12 months will feature the Year One curriculum and camaraderie of Vanderbilt’s traditional Executive MBA program, one known for helping current and aspiring executives gain in-depth cross-functional perspectives and executive decision-making skills. Year One opens with a one-week residency in Canada and then meets in Nashville on the Vanderbilt campus two Saturdays per month.

• In Year Two, you will take a leave of absence from your Vanderbilt Executive MBA cohort to join executive students from our three other alliance schools for “in-country immersions” of 10 days each. These immersions will happen one per quarter with each immersion taking place in the city and on the campus of the host school in Brazil (São Paulo), Mexico (Mexico City), Canada (Vancouver) and the United States (Nashville).

• At the end of Year Two, you will reunite with your U.S. cohort on the Vanderbilt campus. In addition to earning a Vanderbilt MBA, you will earn the Americas MBA Alliance Certificate, jointly issued by the four schools of the alliance.
