New one-year Penn State Smeal masters program designed to enhance business acumen of STEM students

5/11/16 The Penn State Smeal College of Business will begin accepting applications this summer for fall 2017 enrollment in its new Master of Professional Studies in Management and Organizational Leadership, an accelerated master’s program designed primarily for recently graduated baccalaureate students from technical, non-business backgrounds.

The Management and Organizational Leadership Program is modeled after the first year of the internationally ranked Penn State Smeal MBA. It will feature the same faculty, core MBA course content, and tight-knit environment with an emphasis on teamwork and collaboration.

“Studies have shown a rapid one-year return on investment for students who sharpen their business capabilities in accelerated graduate programs like this,” said Brian Cameron, associate dean for Professional Master’s Programs at Smeal. “We invite undergraduates to apply to Management and Organizational Leadership early in their senior year or even earlier as a powerful career launch pad and an alternative to immediately joining the workforce after graduation. We’ll also consider applications from M.S. and Ph.D. graduates with little or no industry work experience who are planning careers in business-facing roles.”

A survey of around 10,000 students from across the world shows that 81% Indians (exact number of the domestic sample isn’t available) polled would prefer to go to a foreign B-school. In 2011, about 76% of Indian MBA aspirants surveyed were inclined to study abroad.
The biggest factor in favour of a foreign MBA is the reputation of education systems abroad, followed by the prospect of an international career. Here’s the entire list of reasons why Indian students prefer foreign MBAs:
