When I was looking at executive MBA programs – and there are plenty of them out there – I wanted to find a program that focuses on the science of management. I was looking to gain tools and knowledge based on real scientific evidence rather than just case studies. I found what I was looking for at MIT Sloan. I saw how this program would help prepare me to advance to the next level in my company with its holistic and scientific approach to management. It also would broaden my perspective with access to world-class faculty and students who come from many different industries around the world. MIT Sloan offers a different tier of business education.
