Symposium: Redesigning the MBA: A Curriculum Development Symposium, 12–13 October, 2011, Singapore

A business school’s curriculum reflects its unique mission and encompasses the intellectual capital and character of its faculty. It is an essential ingredient for high-quality management education and a healthy business school brand. Curriculum is one of the most difficult elements for a business school to change and nowhere is this more conspicuous than in MBA degree programs.

To guide you through the MBA curriculum redesign process, AACSB is offering a new event:
Redesigning the MBA: A Curriculum Development Symposium, to help business schools think strategically about questions of purpose, positioning, and program design. The symposium will draw on cutting edge research and best practices from business schools in the Asia-Pacific region, North America, and Europe. It will provide valuable insights about the content and pedagogies of MBA curricula, while also allowing the participants to network and exchange ideas.

The symposium will provide sessions on the following topics: managing in a global context, leadership development, innovation and creativity, critical thinking and communication skills, experiential learning, and the implementation challenges of curriculum redesign. Each session will feature examples from schools that will share syllabi and discuss the process of developing courses and programs.
