The Johns Hopkins Global MBA
How far would you walk for clean water?
Our Prescription for a World in Crisis
Your Johns Hopkins Global MBA
The undisputed strength of Johns Hopkins University lies in its science and health-based research and teaching enterprise. The Global MBA is rooted in this tradition and draws its distinctive strengths from it. It begins with a world view.
Cultural mosaic
Prior to the start of the fall term, a three-week Orientation Intensive guides you through learning exercises in cultural diversity, global institutions, team building, and a “managerial toolbox” of essential communication and analytical skills.
The Orientation Intensive not only broadens your knowledge but also sets the stage for your strengths to be recognized and nurtured. We help you understand who you are as an individual and how you can contribute effectively as a business professional to your organization and to your community.
First things first
The program delivers a rigorous business school education.
Business Essentials steeps you in the dynamics of a modern business. Here you acquire a holistic foundation in core disciplines—finance, marketing, management, and operations—with an emphasis on the application of innovative business concepts to actual business problems, especially in the realm of health and scientific discovery. You do this by moving though a series of integrated modules that reflect the nature and structure of real-world business problems in the areas of Financial Resources, People and Markets, Business Processes, and Managerial Decision Behavior, particularly as they apply to health and science related challenges.
The art of thinking
Weekly Thought and Discourse Seminars, a critical element of the Global MBA experience, begin in your first semester and run throughout your two years of study. These Friday seminars provide an opportunity for you to learn from prominent business leaders and policy makers, in a format that stimulates analytical thinking, persuasive communication, and creative expression.
The seminars offer an environment of intellectual inquiry and debate in which your participation and perspective are valued—indeed, expected. You gain a critical analytical perspective on important business issues and the skills needed to organize and communicate your views in multiple modalities.
Building future leaders
From the day you arrive at the Carey Business School, your future becomes our passion. Professional Development guidance on resume creation, professional positioning strategies, and interviewing techniques designed to support your career aspirations begins in your first weeks and continues throughout your time at Johns Hopkins.
Our commitment to you is to help you develop into an ethical, informed business professional—a capable leader who is culturally literate and entrepreneurial in spirit. You will know how to roll up your sleeves to get the job done, how to capture and articulate a brilliant idea, how to inspire others, how to lead and how to follow.
The Second Year
As a graduate of the Johns Hopkins Carey Business School, you will be prepared to take your rightful place among the many thousands of Johns Hopkins University alumni who make a difference in the world.
We look forward to sharing this journey with you.
