(7a) Introduction to the MBA

This is a tutorial-like presentation of the MBA-In-A-Day session.  An invited speaker will give an overview of the title subject, who could be a faculty member from a regional business school or an expert practitioner.

The session will be of interest to those who want to learn about MBA programs and content: Those who may be considering enrolling in an MBA program, those who want to understand the type of information that is covered, and those who would benefit from having an overview of a typical MBA program. The speakers will direct their presentations to the interests of chemical engineers. The session will be highly of interest to young professionals: The typical MBA student has six years of experience and is 29 years old, and students with engineering or science backgrounds make up 35 to 40% of MBA programs.
