Wesleyan’s Executive MBA program, designed for mid- to senior­level managers, requires at least five years of leadership experience. The program enrolls women and men providing opportunities for all professionals in Middle Georgia to take ownership of their future and advance their careers and interact with other mid- to senior-level managers in fields such as financial services, government administration, manufacturing, general management, and business owners.

Dr. Hines said, “Our goal is to continue to intellectually and professionally develop some of the best and brightest future senior managers who will be prepared to make an impact in their careers and in their communities.”

The flexible schedule means classes meet every other weekend over 18 months, allowing students to continue growing in their careers while pursuing an advanced business degree. Students spend 10 to 14 days studying outside the United States under an intense itinerary. Past trips included visits to major companies in China, Russia, Austria, Hungary, Dubai, Italy, and the Czech Republic. The program is currently enrolling for fall semester.
