Executive MBA Programs
The Simon Executive MBA Program is offered on the Rochester campus, as well as in Bern, Switzerland in conjunction with the Institut für Finanzmanagement at the Universität Bern. The partnership adds a global perspective to both the Rochester and European programs. The Bern program is equivalent to the Rochester program and is taught by Simon School faculty and European scholars. Managers are sponsored by their organizations and earn a University of Rochester degree. Like Rochester’s Executive MBA students, the students of the Rochester-Bern Executive M.B.A. Program in Switzerland come from a wide variety of countries and cultures. Bern students spend their six-week summer term in Rochester. During their Rochester stay, European students study with Rochester students on teams, giving students from both programs the chance to experience the various cultural business perspectives. In addition, students from both sides of the ocean widen their business network to include colleagues from around the world.

Famous quotes containing the words executive and/or programs:
“She isn’t harassed. She’s busy, and it’s glamorous to be busy. Indeed, the image of the on- the-go working mother is very like the glamorous image of the busy top executive. The scarcity of the working mother’s time seems like the scarcity of the top executive’s time.... The analogy between the busy working mother and the busy top executive obscures the wage gap between them at work, and their different amounts of backstage support at home.”
—Arlie Hochschild (20th century)
“There is a delicate balance of putting yourself last and not being a doormat and thinking of yourself first and not coming off as selfish, arrogant, or bossy. We spend the majority of our lives attempting to perfect this balance. When we are successful, we have many close, healthy relationships. When we are unsuccessful, we suffer the natural consequences of damaged and sometimes broken relationships. Children are just beginning their journey on this important life lesson.”
—Cindy L. Teachey. “Building Lifelong Relationships—School Age Programs at Work,” Child Care Exchange (January 1994)
