Rensselaer Leadership Experience (RLE) 

During the first semester of the program, students are required to attend a 2-day Leadership Seminar which is held in the sixth or seventh week of the first course. RLEs are scheduled to be held at convenient major cities. RLEs are scheduled to be held on Fridays/Saturdays, allowing for optimal personal arrangements around work and other commitments. Participants pay for their own travel/hotel accommodations for the RLE. The recommended plan is to arrive Thursday and depart on Sunday. All participants are provided with travel information and schedules 30-45 days in advance of the RLE. 

Other Program Highlights

  • Data analytics as a decision augmentation framework is embedded in every course
  • Real-world projects incorporate strategic decision-making, planning and execution
  • Appropriate for professionals from all backgrounds and industries
  • 15 hours per week on average time commitment
  • 2 years on average to complete - go at the speed that fits your life

Making the time for this investment in yourself is so key. I love how the MBA for Professionals program is virtual now – the flexibility allows you to manage your personal and professional life. It is just a matter of making a commitment to it all.
