Educational Approach
The Business School’s graduate programs are designed to maximize the management potential of each student. Students can choose concentrations within each degree program or electives that enable students to complement their degree by specializing in a number of areas ranging from soft skills development to technical specialties outside the domain of the concentration. Students may also choose electives from other schools at Stevens.
The School of Business faculty members are leaders in research and education in the business and technical disciplines that are relevant to decision making, innovation and action in an increasingly global, technology-driven world. Our educational programs provide students with knowledge that is both rigorous and relevant. Of equal importance, our programs emphasize the holistic development of each individual student through the development of life-long skills and abilities such as oral and written communication, team participation and leadership, decision making and ethical reasoning.
