Mission
The Engaged University

Miami University, a student-centered public university founded in 1809, has built its success through an unwavering commitment to liberal arts undergraduate education and the active engagement of its students in both curricular and co-curricular life. It is deeply committed to student success, builds great student and alumni loyalty, and empowers its students, faculty, and staff to become engaged citizens who use their knowledge and skills with integrity and compassion to improve the future of our global society.

Miami provides the opportunities of a major university while offering the personalized attention found in the best small colleges. It values teaching and intense engagement of faculty with students through its teacher-scholar model, by inviting students into the excitement of research and discovery. Miami's faculty are nationally prominent scholars and artists who contribute to Miami, their own disciplines and to society by the creation of new knowledge and art. The University supports students in a highly involving residential experience on the Oxford campus and provides access to students, including those who are time and place bound, on its regional campuses. Miami provides a strong foundation in the traditional liberal arts for all students, and it offers nationally recognized majors in arts and sciences, business, education, engineering, and fine arts, as well as select graduate programs of excellence. As an inclusive community, Miami strives to cultivate an environment where diversity and difference are appreciated and respected.

Miami instills in its students intellectual depth and curiosity, the importance of personal values as a measure of character, and a commitment to life-long learning. Miami emphasizes critical thinking and independent thought, an appreciation of diverse views, and a sense of responsibility to our global future.

Re: Full-Time Program

Full-Time Program
Strategic Management ... an Enterprise Perspective

Miami has a distinctive point of view about graduate business education. Our goal is to develop people who wish to lead, own, create and transform substantive business enterprises. To that end, our program provides a curriculum that integrates the functional areas of business and also blends classroom with practical experiences that address the realities of the global, high-tech marketplace.

Our students are guided by a faculty sincerely committed to both educational and professional development of our students. Miami’s relatively small MBA classes mean that each student is given personalized attention to maximize their potential in school and in their future career pursuits.

In short, the Miami MBA provides:

* A fourteen-month, intensive curriculum which takes process-oriented, cross-functional approach
* Hands-on experience through extended internships with regionally-based employers and a global consultancy with employers located in another part of the world
* Small, selective class allowing one-on-one attention from professors and recruiters

This new program will be designed to meet the needs of working professionals. Now in development, the program will leverage the school's strengths in quality of instruction, global perspective, personal touch, and linkage to the business community. Representatives from the school are meeting with area businesses and student focus groups to ensure that the professional MBA program is fully aligned with the needs of working students, area businesses, and employees.

The Professional MBA Program will start accepting applications in fall 2008.
