The MBA program at Stanford is a two-year, full-time general management program. Students in the program learn to develop their analytical and creative thinking skills as well as build leadership skills in an innovative environment. The program allows students to focus their educational efforts in areas such as environment, international development, healthcare and education by participating in the Public Management and Social Innovation certificate program in addition to completing the MBA program.

Starting in the first year of the program, students follow a curriculum that builds on general management knowledge in order to gain global experience. Students can personalize their experience in the second year through electives, seminars, a joint or dual degree and through completing courses outside of the Graduate School of Business at Stanford.

MBA Students take up to 18 electives to broaden their experience and perspective, or deepen their knowledge in a specific area. These courses are designed to allow students to concentrate on their future career aspirations or to pursue an area of management that interested them. Students also have the opportunity to take a series of two-week compressed courses to build deep knowledge in specific business topics.
