The Willamette MBA is a national leader in experiential education. Our students build real professional work experience and the knowledge and tools that come with it, while enrolled in our full-time MBA program.
The Willamette MBA learning experience emphasizes applying what you learn to real organizations. You will experience a variety of levels of application including case studies, required and elective experiential class consulting projects with real clients, internships, and the highest and most unique level of MBA experiential learning – consequential learning courses.
Consequential learning courses are elective courses where you will be immersed in managing and running a real organization. You will actively apply what you have learned in the MBA program and make real decisions with real money. Your decisions will have real impact on the organization, its community and the bottom line – all within the safety net of the Willamette MBA program.
Experiential and consequential learning courses provide valuable professional experience, knowledge and networking and make the Willamette MBA a great choice for your career.
Experiential client-based courses include PACE, a first-year required course, and many elective courses.
