Introduction

Brown University and IE Business School have forged a unique alliance to offer a globally-ranked and triple-certified Executive MBA. Together, we educate reflective leaders, change-makers, and entrepreneurs who care about the human and societal implications of business.

Over 15 months, you will join together with an international cohort of peers and partake in a rigorous academic journey with renowned faculty. Featuring online and in-person lessons, the unique curriculum incorporates a humanistic approach to understanding how to do business. Beginning with topics such as finance and entrepreneurship, the program will then explore areas focused on societal impacts, such as globalization, sustainability, diversity and equity, and the impact of history on our modern world.

Our Executive MBA is ranked #3 in the world by The Economist and our curriculum is triple-certified by AACSB, AMBA, and EQUIS. Graduates will receive one diploma awarded by both institutions and will enjoy full alumni status from both Brown University and IE Business School.

Designed for busy, ambitious professionals our program blends interactive online learning with in-person sessions. Regardless of where you live, IE Brown Executive MBA's rigorous curriculum, world-class faculty, and dynamic community allow you to build the network and skills vital for advancing your business without interrupting your career.

Program Schedule

The program has 5 face-to-face periods for a total of approximately 7.5 weeks in residence over 15 months. The face-to-face periods take place at the campuses of IE in Madrid, Spain, Brown University in Providence, USA, and on location in Cape Town, South Africa.

The module in South Africa is an ‘immersion experience’, specifically designed for students to experience the ‘beyond business’ focus of the program in a real setting. The week in Cape Town provides context for applied learning— applying knowledge acquired in the previous classroom and online sessions. This rich field experience, in which new opportunities are proposed, explored, and understood in context, is intensified and amplified by the dynamic clashes of culture, politics, and human needs in the selected site.

Interactive, online learning takes place between the face-to-face periods, ensuring continuous learning and interaction between classmates for the duration of the program.
