Expanding Corporate Partnerships
Written by Sophia Li Ferry, Associate Director of Graduate Programs, Recruitment and Student Support, Silberman College of Business.
We are delighted to announce an expansion of our Corporate Partnership program. During spring 2024, three additional cohorts of students from Merck in Rahway, NJ and Novartis in East Hanover, NJ will join our Corporate Partnership program. We are also in the works of offering graduate programs at Bell Works in Holmdel, NJ
Being student-centered is at the heart of our philosophy and our curricular design. Our MBA program was developed with the working professional in mind. By offering the FDU MBA program on-site at each corporate location, students will have the best of both worlds.
They will participate in in-person learning without having to commute to campus during the evening rush hour. Further, there are opportunities to learn outside of the classroom which allows for flexibility with potential travel throughout the year. The hybrid blended model significantly assists in coordinating work, life, school, and any obligations working-students are trying to balance.
Additionally, the faculty are excited to reimagine their curriculum as they incorporate each industry’s current events and relevant issues into the courses they teach.
With a cohort-based model built into corporate partnerships, students and faculty can delve into business topics as they relate to what employees do on a day-to-day basis. There is no better experiential learning than taking what you learn in class one evening and bringing it into your corporate projects the next day.
