Program Comparison

A Simon School education is transformative, focused on providing students the latest theories in the science of management and on teaching our students on how to effectively use the theories in practical business situations. The common language of economics allows students to share ideas and solve problems based on mutually understood methods. You will learn that organizational problems cross all areas of the organization and begin to view these issues from numerous vantage points. Our students are taught a three step approach, called FACt ―  Frame-Analyze-Communicate― to think through business problems rather than just recall the latest business cases and solutions.
