The Mays EMBA program is ranked No. 28 in the world for its research, which is measured by the number of faculty publications in 40 international academic and practitioner journals. The Financial Times also reports that Mays' EMBA students experience an average salary increase of 47 percent over their pre-EMBA salary. To put a figure to it, the average salary is $137,774.
Gail Rogers, EMBA Class of 2005, said, "The Mays EMBA program fit my needs perfectly: reputable program, convenient location, class schedule that would accommodate my travel, 'value chain' program content and design, were very similar to my company's business model."
John Pace, EMBA Class of 2008, said, "The program has enabled me to approach problems from a much different perspective. The financial, statistical, operational, accounting and management tools that I've learned - to name but a few - elevate my thinking to a large-scale outlook that, quite honestly, I didn't know was missing before starting the Mays program. The improvement is exhilarating."
Being a part of the Aggie tradition, even in a campus in Houston and a world class, goal orientated EMBA program, is a major drawing factor for Mays' EMBA students.
"The experience of working in teams through the entire program, while gaining valuable insight from the experience of my classmates during each interactive class session, provides a robust and multifaceted experience that I take with me wherever I go," Pace said. "I have formed friendships with classmates that will last a lifetime. The program, and being part of the Aggie network, is a life-changing experience."
In the future, the program plans to focus on providing an exceptional educational experience for the participants while extending its reach in the Houston market.
