In the health care sector, MBA students are finding that specialized programs can give them an in-depth knowledge of their chosen industry. "There's so much I've been learning about the health-care industry that's not only hospital-based," MBA student Ruby Villavisencio, a hospital administrator, told the Journal.
The newspaper noted that health care EMBA degrees currently comprise about a quarter of all such specialized programs, while technology represents an additional four percent. And according to the Executive MBA Association, students who complete EMBAs report better leadership, team building and decision making skills, as well as more ethical awareness and global sensitivity.
