The GMCA is proud to announce our 2016 miniMBA program!
This 10 lecture program will give graduate students and post-docs:
– A grounding in fundamental business concepts
– The opportunity to learn from business experts
– The chance to apply this new knowledge to solving business cases
The lectures will be presented by industry professionals with diverse backgrounds.
Course format: Each class will consist of a mini group case practice on a specific topic followed by a group presentation of the solution. There will then be a one hour lecture on the same topic. The course will cover concepts from the popular “Ten Day MBA” book, by Steven Silbiger. At the end of the course, students will participate in a case competition which will be judged by a panel of consultants.
