Enterprise Management at MIT Sloan Facilitating Holistic Thinking
Using innovative classroom and project-based activities, the Enterprise Management Certificate is designed to develop students’ abilities to take a holistic approach to solving the most pressing challenges of today’s businesses. Both coursework and projects will help students to develop their skills in marketing, operations, and strategy and prepare them to be future business leaders with multi-disciplinary perspectives. The certificate prepares students for careers in large enterprises where such a cross-functional viewpoint is critical.
The EM Certificate provides a unique experience: students participate in projects with actual companies from day one of their first semester. Lectures, faculty mentors, and MIT Sloan’s signature Action Learning curriculum train students for careers in large organizations in areas such as marketing, operations, strategic management consulting, product development, and innovation management.
Action Learning is a cornerstone of the certificate, and all students complete the EM Lab in their first semester and the Management Practice Hack-a-Thon in their second semester.
Special features include certificate-exclusive dinners and networking events to meet leading practitioners, faculty, and business leaders. Students also have the opportunity to learn with a cohort of like-minded classmates through EM Certificate community events.
