The NYU Stern Executive MBA program provides international business exposure, including global study experiences in emerging markets around the world. Unlike Executive MBA programs elsewhere, at Stern each class embarks on two required Global Study Tours. These one-week international residencies are an integral component of the core curriculum.

Study in International Markets
As a student, you will participate in a Global Study Tour during each year of the program. Global Study Tour destinations are carefully selected by Stern faculty and administration with a focus on relevant business trends and current events. Your second-year destination will typically be very different from your first, allowing you to compare different emerging market economies.
From Latin America, to the Middle East and Asia
Recent classes have studied in Latin America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. Some of the countries visited include Argentina, Russia, Estonia, Turkey, the UAE, China and India. While abroad, you will participate in meetings and in-depth discussions with leaders of industry, financial institutions and government organizations. As an example, some highlights from the Fall 2008 Shanghai and Ho Chi Minh City tour included various meetings with executives from Google, IBM, senior officials from the U.S. Embassy and a panel of Vietnamese business leaders.
Most overseas costs associated with the two Global Study Tours, such as accommodations and meals, are included in the program tuition. Students are responsible for their own round-trip airfare to and from the program destination and other nominal expenses.
