    Your family is part of the Goizueta family. We want them to feel at home. That’s why we host events like face painting and bowling nights.

    Personal Program

    There’s no one right way to build your Executive MBA. Tailor your coursework to one or more functional or industry-based areas through our array of elective courses and dive deep into an area of interest in an immersion experience. Paired with 1-on-1 executive coaching and a personal career coach, a Goizueta EMBA focuses on better business and a better you.

    • Pathway to C-suite

      Pathway to C-suite is our signature networking event where students and C-suite leaders come together to discuss professional drive and the pursuit of the C-suite. The personal, authentic, and inspirational conversations broaden the mindsets of students and share the realities of top leadership positions. Each year, senior leaders provide insights to various industries and roles and how they have navigated their careers.

    • Fun on the Green

      This family friendly event affords the opportunity for Executive MBA students to introduce their families and support systems to their fellow EMBA classmates. A fun-filled afternoon held on Goizueta’s Patterson Green landscape consists of great eateries and games for individuals of all ages. The importance of family and community is highly valued at Goizueta. This event allows your family to be recognized and welcomed into the Goizueta family.

    • Alumni Dinner

      It is vital to connect and bond with your fellow EMBA students, and it is equally important to create relationships with our alumni. Our community values lifelong relationships and bridges the connections between current students and alumni of the program. The annual Alumni Dinner is a collaborative event that provides an opportunity for you to build your professional network beyond your classmates and leverage the greater Goizueta community.
