“It is impossible to capture everything I’ve learned at the EMBA program at FIU in a few sentences, but I would definitely encourage future executives to seek the same course. EMBA has taught me not only the hard side of organizational capabilities, namely operations and processes, but also very strong concepts about teamwork and leadership. EMBA has taught me leadership is about character - who I am, not what I do. I’ve learned how to combine value-based leadership with the rigor of challenging executive-level graduate business education, and had fun doing it!”

today’s increasingly global economy, it’s important to have an international base of knowledge.
The Dual Degree program enables you to get a global business perspective by earning a
graduate degree at FIU and a second business degree at one of our 30+ partner schools around the world.
Students will live in foreign destinations, learn from international faculty, and have two different sets of
networking opportunities and contacts, which are invaluable when it comes time for employment or future
potential business partnerships.
