Our Students
Drucker Executive Management Program (EMP) students come from an incredibly broad spectrum of industries - corporate, private, governmental and non-profit - and a wide array of ethnic backgrounds. This diversity introduces a variety of perspectives into the classroom, generating lively and insightful discussions. You'll be impressed with your peers' intelligence, experience and fresh viewpoints, and how they will provide you with a greater understanding of today's business community, both domestically and globally.
The wide range of knowledge our students bring to the classroom encourages you to open up to ideas that you wouldn't have had the opportunity to explore without coming here. It gives you the chance to think in deep ways, leap beyond your own experience, and thoughtfully contemplate issues that impact the world.
Out students are noted for their eagerness to explore and learn from industries and environments other than their own. It is not uncommon for our faculty to comment on how impressed they are with the number of students who choose to work on projects that are not directly related or associated with a student's company or trade.
At the Drucker School, we discourage boundaries. You are encouraged to interact as much as you'd like with other students, alumni and current prospects, as well as their families. It's part of our effort to foster connections and communities that expand beyond the classroom and increase your personal and professional network. If you are seeking advice on a work issue, we can even put you in touch with faculty, students or alumni with experience that might help.
