Curriculum

The right mix of rigor and relevance

TMMBA classes are cultivated and taught by world-class faculty. The UW Foster School of Business is ranked #4 in world for research and productivity. Our faculty do a remarkable job at bringing their rigorous evidence-based research down from the 40,000-foot level and present it in a relevant and real-world context. Designed so students can learn concepts one day and apply them the next. Lively discussions, stimulating readings and case study analyses focus on real-life business challenges, products, and innovations. The overall course content is grounded in executive management, strategy and leadership principles, theories, and frameworks.

To complement your executive management education, we offer a variety of workshops to complement the academic experience. Topics in public speaking, presentations, teamwork and personal branding position students to take the next step in their careers.

Varied approach to teaching and learning

Recognizing students synthesize concepts and frameworks differently, faculty utilize a variety of methods to energize and deepen student learning, including:

  • Dynamic class discussions
  • Individual and group projects, presentations, and case analyses
  • Real-world case studies connecting theory and application
  • Faculty-endorsed business articles, books, and other reading materials
  • Informative video content as foundational material
