Program Overview

MBA Roundtable research conducted among 232 MBA programs in 2009 found that 69 percent of respondent schools have made a significant revision to their MBA curriculum within the past four years. Eighty-nine percent of the programs surveyed said they have curricular changes in the works. This indicates a clear commitment to curricular innovation among MBA educators.

Yet many describe the curricular change process as a “painfully long and bureaucratic” experience where the outcomes are nothing more than “old wine in new bottles.” And recent transformations in graduate management education—from program proliferation to globalization to intense stakeholder criticism to increased delivery costs—make it even more difficult for business school leaders to make meaningful decisions about their MBA programs and curricula. Is MBA curricular innovation a strategic imperative? If so, why? How do we best inform and manage the change process within our programs? What are our options?

To explore answers to these questions, join us for the MBA Roundtable’s 2010 Curricular Innovation Symposium. Through a series of presentations and peer discussions, you will gain insights into curricular innovation models and best practice processes being used in MBA programs worldwide, and leave better equipped to manage change within your business school.
