Description of Duke Goethe Executive MBA

Duke University's Fuqua School of Business and Frankfurt University's Goethe Business School have joined forces and established the Duke Goethe Executive MBA, a dual- degree, 22-month executive MBA program for working executives.

The Duke Goethe Executive MBA program officially launched in May 2005 with an inaugural class of 33 students. The program enables working professionals to pursue an MBA degree without career interruption. Teaching will take place mainly at Frankfurt's new Campus Westend, combined with two weeks of classroom instruction at the Duke campus in North Carolina and through the Internet using Duke's distance-learning platform.

Application and Admission Requirements

The Duke Goethe Executive MBA program targets high-potential professionals with an average of eight years and a minimum of three years of work experience. The program is challenging and admission is selective. The admissions committee strives to build a diverse class so that all participants can contribute to and benefit from the educational environment.

Criteria
  • An undergraduate degree or equivalent
  • Strong managerial and leadership ability as well as proven team communication and time management skills
  • Quantitative achievement
  • Proficiency in written and spoken English
  • Official scores of TOEFL and GMAT
  • Complete application packet including three letters of recommendation
  • Personal interview
  • Corporate Sponsorship

    The Duke Goethe Executive MBA program requires significant support from the sponsoring organization. Participation in the Duke Goethe Executive MBA program demonstrates a company's commitment to maintaining a professional, knowledgeable staff.
    Sponsoring organizations may support a Duke Goethe Executive MBA student in two ways:

    Financial Support
    Sponsoring companies may choose to fully or partially fund the Duke Goethe Executive MBA participants. The financial support could include the tuition cost and/or paid or partially paid leave to attend the sessions.

    Time
    Sponsoring organizations must grant their employees the necessary time away from the office to attend classes. In addition, companies need to accommodate students' shifting time commitments and help them delegate more broadly in order to balance work, family and academic needs.

    Degree and diploma etc.

    Students earn two Executive Masters of Business Administration (MBA), one from Duke University's Fuqua School of Business and the other from Frankfurt University's Goethe Business School.

    duke school of business - rethinking the business boundaries

    In its relatively short history, The Fuqua School of Business at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina has established itself as one of the leading business schools in the world.

    Duke MBA & Executive EducationFuqua is one of the top U.S. business schools. We enrolled our first class (12 strong!) in 1970. Today, the annual enrollment in our degree programs is approximately 1,340. More than 1,000 managers and executives of leading firms worldwide attend our non-degree Executive Education programs each year.

    The Fuqua School of Business has established itself as a leading educator and supplier of future business leaders at all levels around the globe. We've earned this leadership position with the help of our corporate partners who derive value from their relationships with Fuqua. We provide our students with the corporate partnernerships for recruitment, collaboration with our faculty in areas of research and customized corporate education, partnership to enrich the MBA experience.

    To remain true to our mission and produce global leaders of consequence, we must rethink traditional geographic and intellectual boundaries. The world we now live in is multi-centric, globally interdependent, and dynamic — yet challenging. Standard frameworks and assumptions may be slow to adapt, but they must.  In order to play our part in addressing tomorrow's business challenges, we've announced plans to become the world's first legitimately global business school, based in the economic and cultural hubs of world regions.
