MBA For Executives
Area of Focus: Healthcare

"I personally aspire to be a strategic visionary who can help influence and execute positive, progressive change in the healthcare of children and families in the United States. Yale SOM’s EMBA program aligned perfectly with my goal to improve business and society. In the end, healthcare is about people. But to have a sustainable mission, healthcare needs to function as a business."

MBA For Executives
Area of Focus: Sustainability

"This program is really for people who’ve achieved a certain expertise in their professions and are looking for a springboard into upper leadership, or into new industries or functions. I’ve already been able to apply tools and concepts from both our Probability Modeling and Statistics course and our Modeling Managerial Decisions course in solving day-to-day problems in inventory strategy and demand planning."
