WORK EXPERIENCE
Most students interested ina MD/MBA degree do not possess the average fiveyears of work experience of our typical MBA candidate. Many students proceed to
medical school directly from their undergraduate program. However, this does not mean that work experience should not be addressed inyour application. The
Admissions Committee is most interested in hearing how your life and work experiences will add to MBA class discussions and an eventual business career. A
college internship, part-time job, or family business experience can provide relevant work experience to strengthen your file. MBA classes are highly
participatory and lively class discussions are a key part of the learning process. Our recommendation is that you prepare your application in a way that
highlights the skills you have gained from your work and organizational experiences.
CAREER INFORMATION
Business decisions will have a broad impact on the delivery of healthcare in the 21st century and physicians equipped with the proper management and financial
skills will be in a better position to effectively function in this environment. Whether managing an individual or group practice, leading a corporate or non-profit
hospital department, or contributing to the development of healthcare policy, the understanding of fundamental financial, management, and organizational
practices is essential. The combined MD/MBA degree focuses on giving future physicians this necessary skill-set for successfully integrating medicine and
business.

requirement.
Students whose academic records fall below the minimum standards stated above will be disqualified from
receiving future financial aid payments. Disqualified students may be approved to receive financial aid after
successfully appealing their case. Students who successfully appeal are placed on Probation. During the
probationary period students remain eligible for financial aid. Students who, at the conclusion of the probationary
period, are making satisfactory academic progress will have their financial aid reinstated unconditionally for the
next award term. Students on probation are not permitted to receive grades of F, U, W, WF, WU, I, IF, IU, LP, or
NC. Students who receive aid on probation and fail to meet probationary conditions will be ineligible for future
financial aid payments. Students who become ineligible for financial aid or fail to meet probationary terms can re-
establish their eligibility by attending classes at their own expense or with the help of private resources from
outside the University. Once minimum standards are met, financial aid funding may be reinstated.
An appeal for extenuating circumstances should be submitted by the first day of class for the semester you are
appealing to ensure adequate time to prepare for any impact to the student account. Failure to submit your
complete appeal by this date may result in your probationary term being postponed to a future semester.
A Satisfactory Academic Progress Appeal Form should be submitted with supporting documentation of any
mitigating circumstances that negatively impacted academic progression. Please contact your financial aid advisor
if you have questions specific to your case.
Generally, the Office of Financial Aid will only approve one appeal per academic degree. This policy may be waived
on a case-by-case basis where extenuating circumstances can be documented.
Satisfactory Academic Progress is the method in which the University tracks the
movement of successful and timely completion of degree requirements associated with
programs of enrollment. Students must maintain satisfactory academic progress to
receive financial aid.
4. Are summer enrolled hours included in the calculation for attempted credits?
Yes, all attempted credits including those credits attempted in summer semester are
included in the calculation for maximum attempted hours.
5. What happens if I withdraw from a class? Are hours withdrawn from included as “attempted” in
the Satisfactory Academic Progress calculation?
Yes, classes withdrawn from resulting in a W, WF, or WU are counted in the Satisfactory
Academic Progress calculation as attempted hours.
6. I have received a warning email from the Office of Financial Aid regarding my Satisfactory
Academic Progress status. What should I do?
This email is provided to students who may be in danger of falling below minimum
standards. Students may wish to review their course or program plans with their
academic advisor after becoming familiar with the policies for continuation.
7. I have been notified by the Office of Financial Aid that I have been disqualified because my
academic record does not meet minimum standards. What options do I have?
You may submit an appeal which details your circumstances and addresses a corrective
action plan. Please refer to the Satisfactory Academic Progress Appeal Form for
additional details on this process.

GOIZUETA HONOR CODE
INTRODUCTION
Members of the Roberto C. Goizueta Business School community are committed to values of honor, integrity, and
accountability. We will not use dishonest means to gain unfair advantage in the academic arena, nor will we tolerate
anyone who does so.
1
APPLICABILITY
3. All students enrolled in any program or course at the Goizueta Business School are required to conduct
themselves in a manner consistent with the Honor Code. It is the responsibility of each student to
acquaint himself or herself with the Honor Code. Failure to do so is not a defense to its application to
all students.
4. On all graded assignments, no assistance or collaboration is permitted unless expressly authorized by
the instructor. Students who are not clear on what assistance is permitted should contact the instructor
directly.
5. Letters informing both graduate and undergraduate students of their acceptance at the Goizueta
Business School, appointment letters for members of the faculty, as well as the Goizueta Business
School web site shall contain a short statement concerning the role of the Honor Council, as well as the
obligation of all members of the Goizueta Business School community to promote the highest
standards of academic integrity. Enrollment in any course at Goizueta Business School constitutes
acceptance of the Honor Code.
HONOR PLEDGE
6. As a reminder of the commitment everyone in the Goizueta community has made to academic
integrity, the student should write and sign the following pledge on examinations and major academic
exercises, unless specifically exempted by the instructor:
I will not lie, cheat, fabricate, plagiarize or do anything to gain unfair academic advantage,
and I will report anyone who does so.
Failure to sign the pledge is not an honor offense, but neither is it a defense in case of
violation of this Code.
ROLES
7. The Honor Council has the following responsibilities and authority:
a. To increase awareness throughout the Goizueta community of the importance of academic
integrity and promote an atmosphere of trust, integrity, and respect,
b. To receive complaints or reports of academic dishonesty from any source,
c. To advise and consult with faculty and administrative officers on matters pertaining to academic
integrity at the University, including amendments and revisions to this code,
d. To investigate suspected Honor Code violations,
e. To serve as the judicial body for Honor Code violations,
f. To recruit new Honor Council members
8. Selection of the Honor Council: There shall be Honor Council comprised of 16 students and 5 faculty
members of the Faculty Honor Code Committee. The Honor Council is composed of full-time
graduate and undergraduate students in good academic standing. They shall be selected on a
staggered, bi-annual basis.
a. Four members representing the graduate student body and 4 members representing the
undergraduate student body shall be selected by way of interview and majority vote by the current
student members of the Honor Council in attendance. This selection process shall take place in
the second half of the Fall Semester before the commencement of the Final Exam period.
Members selected in this way shall begin their terms January 1st of the following year and shall
serve for one calendar year and may be reappointed for additional one-year terms the following
year.
b. In addition, 3 members representing the graduate student body and 4 members representing the
undergraduate student body shall be elected by majority vote of their respective student body.
2
This election process shall take place in the second half of the Spring Semester before the
commencement of the Final Exam period. Elected members shall begin their terms the day after
the last day of Final Exams in the Spring except as noted below. They shall serve for one calendar
year and may be re-elected for additional one-year terms the following year.
c. In addition, 1 member representing the graduate student body from the One Year MBA Program
shall be elected by majority vote of their respective student body. This election process shall take
place in the summer prior to the end of the academic term. The elected member shall begin
his/her term the day after the election. He/she shall serve until the commencement of the final
exam period of the Spring Semester.
d. The Chair of the Honor Council shall be elected from the graduate student members of the Honor
Council by way of majority vote of the Honor Council membership after the Spring Honor
Council election. For purposes of selecting the new Chair, members elected in the Spring shall be
considered eligible to run and vote. Members selected in the previous Spring that were not re-
elected shall not be eligible to vote. If the Honor Council Chair was chosen by way of the Fall
selection process the Chair’s term shall be extended until the end of the School year in the
following Spring.
e. The five Faculty members of the Faculty Honor Code Committee (one member from each
academic area) will be selected by Area Coordinators. The Chair of the Faculty Honor Code
Committee will also serve as the faculty advisor to the Student Honor Council.
9. Duties of the Chair: When a case is referred to the Honor Council or a complaint is made, the Chair
of the Honor Council will then carry out or delegate the following duties:
a. Initiate an Investigation,
b. Speak with or provide written notification of the charges to the accused student and the faculty
member whose course is involved,
c. Appoint a member of the Honor Council to serve as the Advocate for the accused (see part 11
below),
d. Initiate an investigation of the charges to determine whether the case should proceed to a formal
hearing (paragraph 21 below),
e. Inform the accused and the affected faculty member whether the results of the investigation
require the case to proceed to a formal hearing,
f. For cases that proceed to a formal hearing, convene and preside over the Honor Hearing,
g. Communicate the results of the Honor Hearing to the Honor Code Administrator and the affected
faculty member.
11. Role of the Advocate: The accused student may be assisted by the Advocate appointed in part 9c
above. The role of the Advocate will be limited to:
a. Making brief opening and closing statements, as well as comments on appropriate sanctions,
b. Suggesting relevant questions that the Honor Council Chair may direct to a witness,
c. Providing confidential advice to the student.
3
Even if accompanied by an Advocate, the student must take an active and constructive role in the
Honor Hearing. In particular, the student must fully cooperate with the Honor Board and respond to its
inquiries without undue intrusion by an Advocate.
PROCEDURES
12. All records in academic dishonesty cases will be reported to and maintained in the office of the Honor
Code Administrator in the Dean’s office.
13. Faculty members who suspect that a student has committed an act of academic dishonesty will contact
the Honor Code Administrator to determine whether prior sanctions have been imposed on the student,
and to determine whether the matter is suitable for informal resolution. If prior sanctions have been
imposed, the case must be referred to the Honor Council for a hearing. If not, the faculty member may
either use the less formal process described in paragraphs 14-18 or may refer the case to the Honor
Council for a hearing. Hearing referral may be made in any case, but must be made if the student is
subject to suspension or expulsion.
14. If the faculty member chooses to resolve the matter informally, the faculty member will give the
student confidential, written notice, which sets forth the allegations of suspected academic dishonesty,
and which refers specifically to this Code. Upon a timely request, the Honor Code Administrator will
meet with the accused student in order to review pertinent procedures.
15. Within three days of the written notice, the faculty member will offer to meet with the student and
separately with any others who may have information about the matter. The student will be allowed to
present relevant evidence to the faculty member, and, at the discretion of the faculty member, may also
be allowed to bring relevant witnesses. The faculty member will inform all with whom he or she
discusses the matter that it is confidential, that each individual has a duty to keep confidential all facts
and information related to the matter, and that any breach of this duty of confidentiality shall be
considered a violation of the Honor Code.
16. Resolution of any such case by a faculty member is an informal non-adversarial matter. The faculty
member may conclude no violation has occurred and will inform the Honor Code Administrator. If the
faculty member determines that academic dishonesty has occurred, the faculty member may impose a
course-related sanction such as assigning a lowered or failing grade on the assignment or in the course.
The student’s admission may be considered a mitigating circumstance for purposes of sanctions. The
faculty member should inform the student in writing of his/her decision and the course-related sanction
to be imposed.
17. If the student disagrees with the proposed resolution in paragraph 16 the student may appeal to the
Honor Council by sending a written request for a hearing to the faculty member and to the Honor Code
Administrator. The case will then be referred to the Honor Council for disposition.
18. If the student does not appeal the resolution in paragraph 16, the faculty member will notify the Honor
Code Administrator in writing of the details of the case. Course-related sanctions are not part of the
student’s permanent academic file, but may be considered by the Honor Council in determining
appropriate sanctions in a subsequent case.
19. The Honor Council has jurisdiction over any case of academic dishonesty that is referred directly to it,
and over appeals pursuant to paragraph 17. In cases that are referred by someone other than a faculty
member, the Council may choose to consult the affected faculty member to determine if the faculty
member would prefer to informally resolve the case.
20. Upon notification of a suspected violation of the Honor Code, the Honor Council Chair shall appoint
two Investigators from the Honor Council. The Investigators shall examine the allegations in the
following manner:
a. Interview and obtain a signed written statement from the person making the accusation
(“Complainant”),
b. Provide written notice to the accused of the exact nature of the accusation, along with a copy of
the Honor Code.
c. Interview the accused,
4
d. Interview other potential witnesses and review any documentary and physical evidence;
After completing the investigation, the Investigators shall submit a written statement to the Chair of the
Honor Council recommending that the charges be dismissed or referred to an Honor Hearing.
HONOR HEARINGS
21. The purpose of an Honor Hearing is to determine whether the suspected act of academic dishonesty
occurred. In keeping with the ultimate premise and justification of academic life, the duty of all
persons at an Honor Hearing is to assist in a thorough and honest exposition of all related facts. The
basis tenets of scholarship, full and willing disclosure, accuracy of statement, and intellectual integrity
in hypothesis, in argument and in conclusion must always take precedence over the temptation to gain
a particular resolution of the case. An Honor Hearing is not in the character of a criminal or civil legal
proceedings. It is not modeled on these adversarial systems; nor does it serve the same social
functions. It is an academic process unique to the community of scholars that comprise a University.
22. The Honor Hearing will be conducted by an Honor Board, consisting of six persons, five of whom will
be voting members, selected as follows:
a. Three students selected by the Honor Council Chair from among the Honor Council members. In
the event the accused is a graduate student, then at least two of the student members shall be
graduate students, and if an undergraduate, they will be undergraduate students.
b. Two faculty members selected by the faculty chair from among the Faculty Honor Code
Committee members. In the event the accused is a graduate student, then at least one of the
persons selected shall regularly teach graduate students, and if an undergraduate, then they shall
regularly teach undergraduates.
c. The Honor Council Chair, who will preside over the Honor Hearing, but will not vote.
23. The Honor Council Chair will select the date, time and place for the Honor Hearing, and notify the
accused in writing a minimum of seven (7) days prior to the proposed date of the Hearing. The notice
shall include:
a. Date, time and place of the Honor Hearing,
b. The nature of the allegations against the Accused and of the evidence supporting the allegations in
sufficient particularity to give an opportunity to the accused to prepare for the Honor Hearing.
The Honor Council Chair may adjust the scheduling of the hearing as appropriate under the circumstances
or at the reasonable request of the accused. If the accused does not cooperate, the Honor Council Chair
may recommend to the Honor Code Administrator’s office that the Registrar withhold the Accused’s
grades, registration and degree until an Honor Hearing is held.
24. An Honor Hearing is a confidential investigation. It requires a deliberative and candid atmosphere,
free from distraction. Accordingly, only the members of the Honor Board, the Investigators, the
accused, and his or her Advocate may be present during the Honor Hearing, other than the complainant
or a witness while testifying. The members of the Honor Board may conduct private deliberations at
such times and places as they deem proper.
25. It is the responsibility of the person desiring the presence of a witness before an Honor Board to ensure
that the witness appears. The appearance of an individual with relevant information is preferable to a
written statement, but the latter may be accepted when the individual is unavailable. Any written
statement must be dated, signed, and witnessed by a notary. The work of an Honor Board will not, as a
general practice, be delayed due to the unavailability of a witness.
26. Witnesses may only be in attendance while providing testimony during the hearing. Prior to the Honor
Hearing, the accused and the accused’s Advocate shall have the right to examine the evidence in
preparation for a defense.
5
27. Presentation of evidence shall ordinarily proceed in the following sequence, although the Honor
Council Chair has the authority to change the sequence as he/she deems appropriate. The following
steps, however, have been found to be efficient, and are generally recommended:
a. The Investigators, and then the accused or the accused’s Advocate, summarize the matter before
the Honor Board, including any relevant information or arguments.
b. The Investigators present and question persons having knowledge of the incident, and offer
documents, materials, or witnesses bearing on the case. The accused and all members of the
Honor Board may question any person giving testimony. Formal rules of evidence shall not be
applicable. The Honor Council Chair may admit any matter into evidence which has probative
value and may exclude unduly repetitious or irrelevant evidence.
c. The Honor Board may ask the accused any relevant questions. The Honor Board may also request
any additional material or the appearance of other persons they deem appropriate.
d. The Investigators, and then the accused or the accused’s Advocate, may make brief closing
statements. Then the Investigators, the accused, and the accused’s Advocate are dismissed from
the Honor Hearing.
e. The Honor Board meets privately to discuss the case, and reaches a finding by a majority vote.
The Honor Board will not conclude that a student has attempted or engaged in an act of academic
dishonesty unless, after considering all the information before it, a majority believes that such a
conclusion is supported by clear and convincing evidence. If this is not the case, the Honor Board
will dismiss the charge of academic dishonesty.
28. If the Honor Board finds that an act of academic dishonesty did occur, it will recommend an
appropriate sanction to the Honor Code Administrator. The Honor Board will use precedent and best
judgment to recommend an appropriate penalty for the violation of academic dishonesty. The normal
sanction for a first offense shall be a grade of "XF" in the course, but the Honor Board may impose a
lesser or more severe sanction in appropriate cases. A grade of “XF” shall be defined as, “Failure to
pass due to Academic Dishonesty.”
29. After being found guilty of a second Honor Code violation, the accused will receive a recommended
punishment from the Honor Board of expulsion in all but exceptional cases.
30. After concluding its deliberations, the Honor Council Chair shall promptly advise the Honor Code
Administrator in writing of the Honor Council’s findings, conclusions, and recommendations for
penalty and will include all documentary and physical evidence before the Honor Board. Because the
Honor Board offers recommendations not final decisions, the Honor Code Administrator of the
Goizueta Business School must either approve or disapprove the Honor Board final recommendation
in order for the case to be concluded. The Honor Council Administrator may impose the sanction
recommended or sanctions of greater or lesser severity. Once decided, the Honor Code Administrator
should promptly notify Honor Council Chair, the student and affected faculty member in writing of the
outcome of the case and, if applicable, the sanction imposed.
APPEALS
31. The Honor Code Administrator’s decision in Part 30 is final unless within 10 business days after the
Administrator’s written decision is sent to the student, the student notifies the Honor Council Chair and
the Honor Code Administrator in writing of the intention of filing an appeal. The appeal should then
be made to the Dean of the Goizueta Business School within 5 additional business days in writing from
the time the Administrator is notified of the intention to appeal. The appeal should include specific
information about why the decision of the Honor Code Administrator is in error.
CONFIDENTIALITY
32. Except as described in paragraphs 12-18, all members of the Honor Council and all individuals who
are contacted in the course of an investigation by the Honor Council, or who are or will become
witnesses at an Honor Council hearing, have a duty to keep confidential all facts and information
related to any Honor Council matter. No one may discuss with or disclose to anyone outside the
6
Honor Council and its faculty advisor any facts or information related to Honor Council matters. Any
conduct or consultation undertaken by Honor Council members in the performance of their duties
under this Code shall not be considered a breach of confidentiality. All deliberations of the Honor
Council shall be kept confidential. Any violation of this confidentiality is considered a violation of the
Honor Code. All information pertaining to a Hearing will be documented and stored in a confidential
file. The information in this file may only be disclosed to members of the Honor Council, the Honor
Code Administrator and the Dean.
AMENDMENT
33. This Code can be amended by a majority vote of the faculty and of the students who participate in a
Code amendment referendum.

GOIZUETA BUSINESS SCHOOL
MBA CONDUCT CODE
Emory University is an institution dedicated to providing educational opportunities for its students,
transmitting and advancing knowledge, and providing a wide range of services to both students and the
general community. To accomplish these objectives and responsibilities requires that the University be free
from violence, threats, and intimidation; protective of free inquiry and dissent; respectful of the rights of
others; open to change; supportive of democratic and lawful procedure; and dedicated to intellectual
integrity and the rational approach for the resolution of human problems.
The tradition of the University as a sanctuary of academic freedom and center of informed discussion is an
honored one, to be guarded vigilantly. The basic significance of that sanctuary lies in that protection of
intellectual freedoms: the rights of professors to teach; of scholars to engage in the advancement of
knowledge; of students to learn and express their views.
Because of these objectives, the University community is necessarily pluralistic and its constituent
elements varied and diverse. A system is necessary to provide the proper balance between the academic
freedoms allowed by a member of the University and his or her responsibility as a citizen of the University
community. For this purpose, and in accordance with the bylaws of the University, the President of the
University has defined the interests of the University community to be promoted and protected by such a
system and has delegated to the Dean of Goizueta Business School the responsibility of designing and
maintaining a conduct code.
The Goizueta Business School Graduate Code of Conduct (Code) may be reviewed annually and changes
require the approval of the Dean of the Goizueta Business School (Dean) and the Chair of the Conduct
Council (Chair). Provisions of this Code may be revised, supplemented, or amended at any time by action
of the appropriate Goizueta Business School authorities approved by the Dean.

Updated July 2014
PROHIBITED CONDUCT
Each Goizueta MBA student may be subject to this Code whether misconduct occurs on University
premises, at University-sponsored activities, or at any location off-campus when such conduct is brought to
the attention of the University. It is neither possible nor necessary to specify every instance of misconduct
that could result in disciplinary action against a student. The following list includes, but is not limited to,
conduct which may subject a student to disciplinary action.
a. Attempting, assisting, or encouraging any conduct prohibited by this Code.
b. Causing physical harm to any person, or causing reasonable apprehension of such harm.
c. Disorderly or indecent behavior, including destroying or damaging University property or the property of
others.
d. Engaging in conduct directed at a specific person or persons that seriously alarms or intimidates such
person or persons and that serves no legitimate purpose. Such conduct may include: explicit or implicit
threats, including gestures that place a person in reasonable fear of unwelcome physical contact, harm or
death; following a person about in a public place or to or from his or her residence; making remarks in a
public place to a specific person that are by common usage lewd, obscene, expose a person to public hatred,
or that can be reasonably expected to have a tendency to cause acts of violence by the person to whom the
remark is addressed; or communicating anonymously by electronic mail or voice mail or graphic means or
making a telephone call anonymously whether or not a conversation ensues.
e. Violations of the University’s Sexual Misconduct Policy, Policy 8.2 (http://policies.emory.edu/8.2).
Policy 8.2 applies to each of Emory’s schools, including to the students of the Goizueta Business School.
Policy 8.2 sets forth a centralized reporting, investigation and grievance/conduct process for allegations of
sexual misconduct pursuant to Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 (Title IX). Policy 8.2,
which is administered through the office of Emory’s Title IX Coordinator for Students, shall apply in the
principal instance to address sexual misconduct allegation(s) in matters where the accused individual is a
student.
Although each student is also bound by the provisions of Goizueta Business School’s conduct code, any
investigation and adjudication pursued under Policy 8.2 shall take precedence over the school’s separate
conduct code or honor code provisions. If there are multiple violations implicated by a reported incident
(e.g., a violation of Policy 8.2 in addition to a violation of an individual school policy), the
student/respondent may either be subject to multiple conduct proceedings, depending on the particular facts
involved, or, upon the student’s request or request by the Title IX Coordinator for students, consent to a
single proceeding under Policy 8.2, wherein all charges are adjudicated in one forum. At all times,
however, Goizueta Business School shall retain jurisdiction over any alleged violations of the school’s
conduct and honor codes, even if a conduct process is initially pursued against the responding student under
Policy 8.2. Moreover, if a student is ultimately found not to have violated Policy 8.2, the student may still
be subject to separate disciplinary proceedings under Goizueta Business School’s conduct code. To the
extent that there may be any conflicts between the Goizueta Business School’s conduct code or policies and
Policy 8.2, the provisions of 8.2 shall govern allegations of sexual misconduct.

CONDUCT PROCEDURES
Anyone wishing to report an alleged incident of misconduct under this Code may make such report to the
Dean or Director of Program. The Dean or Director of the Program will forward the report to the Chair of
the Conduct Council. A determination whether action should be taken in response to a report will be made
by the Chair. If it is determined that further action should be taken, the case will be assigned to a Conduct
Officer by the Chair or the Chair may serve as the Conduct Officer.
The Dean's Office will notify the student in writing that he or she must make an appointment for a
preliminary meeting within five (5) days of the date on the written notice. Failure to schedule or attend this
preliminary meeting will automatically result in formal charges as described below.
The Conduct Officer will hold a preliminary meeting with the accused student to review the report as well
as ascertain the accused student's perspective of the incident. The Conduct Officer will refer the student to
the Goizueta Graduate Code of Conduct. In this meeting, the accused student will be asked to decide
whether or not s/he wishes to accept responsibility for having violated the Code of Conduct.
If the accused student accepts responsibility for having violated the Code of Conduct and thereby waives
the option of a hearing, the Conduct Officer shall recommend appropriate sanction(s).
6
Updated July 2014
If a student does not accept responsibility to having violated the Code of Conduct, the Conduct Officer will
conduct an investigation to determine if the matter should proceed to formal charges, or if it can be
disposed of administratively by agreement of the parties involved on a basis acceptable to the Conduct
Officer.
If the matter is not resolved, the Conduct Officer will then meet again with the accused student and present
the student with a letter stating the formal charges. A copy of documents relevant to the case will be given
to the accused student and the complainant at least seven days in advance of the hearing. These formal
charges will be referred for a hearing and a copy of documents relevant to the case will be forwarded to the
appropriate hearing body. The Goizueta Conduct Council serves as the hearing panel to determine the
appropriate sanction(s), if any.
In cases pertaining to student organizations, the president shall represent the organization during all
conduct proceedings.
If an accused student or organization fails to respond to any notification in writing concerning the conduct
process, the case will be automatically referred to a hearing with the Goizueta Conduct Council.
The University reserves the right to place a "hold" on the diploma, degree certification, official transcripts,
or registration of a student who has been charged with a conduct violation under this Code even though he
or she may have completed all academic requirements. The diploma, degree certification, official
transcripts, or registration may be withheld until the conduct charges have been resolved and/or sanctions
as well as other conduct obligations completed.
HEARING PROCEDURES
The Chair or Conduct Officer may require any student of the University to attend and/or testify at any
hearing or meeting regarding a conduct matter that is covered under this Code. The Dean or Chair may
request faculty or staff members to attend and/or testify at a hearing or meeting or furnish a written
statement.
Notification in writing of a hearing before a Conduct Officer, or the Goizueta Conduct Council, as well as
the date and time of this hearing will be sent to the student/organizational president at least seven (7)
calendar days before the scheduled date of the hearing. At this hearing, a decision of "in violation" or "not
in violation" will be made, based upon the available information and evidence presented at the hearing,
with or without the accused being present. If it is determined that a violation has occurred, a sanction will
also be determined and the student/organizational president will be notified in writing.
Whenever a hearing is to be held regarding an alleged incident of misconduct under this Code, the accused
student/organizational president and the complainant, if any, shall be given at least seven (7) calendar days
written notice of the charges alleged against the accused student and of the date, time, and place of the
hearing.
The hearing shall be conducted by the appropriate hearing body (Conduct Officer) and all may require
witnesses to testify at the hearing. Rules of evidence that apply in courts of law shall not apply in such
hearings. The hearing shall be closed to everyone except the hearing body, appropriate staff, the accused
student/organizational president, complainant, advisors to the accused student/organizational president and
the complainant, as well as witnesses during the actual time of their testimony.
As used in the remainder of the Section and the following Section, references to the Conduct Council and
the Chair shall also refer to the Conduct Officer.
The accused student/organizational president and the complainant may be assisted during a hearing by one
advisor of his/her choice.
To protect the educational and non-adversarial nature of the conduct process, guidelines for participation of
advisors will be strictly enforced. In general, participation of advisors is only allowed on behalf of accused
students or complainants during formal hearing proceedings. Requests to have advisors present during
7
Updated July 2014
other elements of the conduct process may be granted at the discretion of the Director of Student Conduct.
At all times, advisors must follow the guidelines for their participation.
The term advisor is defined as a current member of the Emory University community: faculty, staff, or
student, who provides assistance to an accused student or complainant at that student's request during a
formal hearing. The role of the advisor is to support the student. An advisor may not play an active role
such as giving statements or questioning witnesses. An advisor may not speak for or on behalf of the
student. A student may consult with his/her advisor during breaks in the hearing, or an advisor may make
whispered or written comments to the student during the hearing, provided such comments do not interfere
with the hearing process.
Both the complainant and the accused student/organizational president are allowed to:
a. Be present at the hearing until such time as the hearing body retires to deliberate the decision. However,
if either the accused student/organizational president, complainant, or the advisor fails to appear at the
hearing, the hearing may be held in the absence of either, all, or both.
b. Present tangible and documentary evidence; and evidence by witness, or by signed written statements of
witnesses who do not attend the hearing, including the signed written statements of the complainant or the
accused. If witnesses fail to appear, the hearing shall be held in their absence. It is the responsibility of the
accused student and the complainant to notify any additional witnesses not called by the hearing body.
Additional witnesses must have the prior approval of the Chair of the hearing body. All witnesses should be
notified of the date, time, and place of the hearing.
c. Question all witnesses who give evidence at the hearing directly or through written questions presented
through the Chair.
The Chair of the respective Council or Conduct Officer shall have final decision on what evidence may be
presented and the tone of questioning. The Chair/Conduct Officer may decide to stop questions at any time.
HEARING DECISIONS - Conduct Officer, Goizueta Conduct Council
The Conduct Officer or Goizueta Conduct Council shall deliberate and decide whether the accused
student/organization has violated the Code. These hearing bodies determine whether a violation occurred
based on whether there is a preponderance of evidence. The hearing body may decide that the
student/organization is in violation of a less serious offense than that originally charged. A determination
that a student/organization has violated the Goizueta Graduate Code of Conduct requires a simple majority
vote. In the case of a tie, the Chair shall cast the deciding vote.
If the finding of a violation is determined, the hearing body shall be provided with the record of any
previous disciplinary proceedings in which the student/organization was found in violation. On the basis of
the hearing and the student's/organization's previous record, a decision will be made regarding sanctions by
a simple majority vote. In the case of a tie, the Chair shall cast the deciding vote.
Whether the Conduct Officer, or the Goizueta Conduct Council acts as the hearing official, a written
decision will be issued in a reasonable time after the date of the hearing. This decision includes: 1) a
statement of charges; 2) a summary of the facts in the case; 3) the decision; 4) a brief statement of the
hearing body's reasoning; and, if a violation is found, 5) sanction(s).
All decisions of the Goizueta Conduct Council or Conduct Officer shall be reviewed for completeness by
the Dean.
The accused shall receive written notice from the Dean's Office of the outcome of the hearing as described
above and will also receive information on the option of an appeal. To the extent permitted by law, the
complainant shall also receive written notice of the outcome of the hearing.

Housing
There’s a wide range of housing available in close proximity to the Emory campus. We recommend that you live in
near Goizueta.
Briarcliff
(http://www.postproperties.com/GA/Atlanta/Emory/Post-Briarcliff)
Worth noting:
Campus Crossings
http://www.livebriarcliff.com (http://www.livebriarcliff.com)
An affordable and private community, Campus Crossing at Briarcliff is located just half a mile from the Emory campus. This
apartment community is uniquely designed to meet the needs of graduate students.
Worth noting:
Highland Square
http://www.highlandsquareatlanta.com (http://www.highlandsquareatlanta.com)
Highland Square is another popular option, primarily because of its proximity to campus. It’s a five minute drive to Emory, or
an easy walk or bike ride.
Worth noting:
The complex has been recently upgraded, featuring a nice pool and gym.
Its location makes it ideally positioned to access many areas (Virginia Highlands, Little Five Points, etc) frequented by
Goizueta students.

8/29/2017 Housing : Onboarding Two Year MBA
The residents are a fairly even mix of graduate students, professionals/families and undergraduate students, so it has a
socially welcoming environment but also stays pretty quiet.
Highland Lake
http://www.highlandlake-apts.com (http://www.highlandlake-apts.com)
Highland Lake is also very close to the Emory campus, and particularly to the Clairmont Campus.
Worth noting:
The facility is well-appointed with two pools, a gym and two lounge areas.
From the complex, it’s a five minute walk to the Clairmont Campus where the Cliff Shuttle provides service to Goizueta.
Few services are located in walking distance; however, the Clairmont Campus Student Activity Center has a student
dining facility, a fully-equipped gym and other services.
Maintenance service requests are handled quickly.
Other Options

All new, transfer and continuing degree-seeking and all international Emory University
students (including Oxford College) are required to have health insurance. Under this
requirement, students must either purchase the Emory University Student Health Insurance
Plan (offered by Aetna Student Health) or provide documentation of enrollment in a
qualifying United States-domiciled plan. For information about the Student Health
Insurance Requirement, including deadline dates for your starting semester, insurance plan
billing and Emory Student Health Insurance Plan annual premiums, click here.
If you wish to substitute your own insurance plan to meet this requirement, go to

Students will need to complete the annual insurance enrollment/waiver process each year
they are enrolled at Emory. If the student wishes to be enrolled in the Emory University
Student Health Insurance Plan, that enrollment will happen automatically at the end of the
waiver process.

As part of our commitment to our Emory students, their families and the Emory community
at large, Emory Student Health Services strive to be readily available to all students for
mental health evaluations, crises and triage services. In addition, we offer psychiatric
services to provide evaluation, diagnosis and ongoing medication management for acute
http://studenthealth.emory.edu/hs/new_students/index.html 3
8/29/2017 New Students
mental health disorders. Often, the management of long-standing, chronic and/or complex
psychiatric conditions is beyond the scope and/or capabilities of our service, given our
commitment to crisis management and timely intervention, our short-term treatment model
and our available counselor/psychiatrist resources.
Over the past decade, the number of students at Emory requesting evaluation and care for
attention deficit-hyperactivity related disorders (ADHD/ADD) has escalated tremendously.
Providing services to this large and increasing volume of ADHD/ADD patients made it
impossible to maintain the availability of quality psychiatric services for students with
immediate mental health needs/crises, potentially putting these other high-risk patients in
jeopardy. Therefore, in Fall 2005, we made the decision no longer assume the care of new
ADHD/ADD student patients at Student Health and Counseling Services, in order to maintain
access for students with urgent/crisis mental health needs. Emory students already under
our care for ADHD/ADD were allowed to remain in the practice until graduation, but new
patients are now referred to other psychiatric providers.
If you are a new or transfer student on ADHD/ADD medications, please contact your current
physician/psychiatrist to work out a plan for ongoing care and medication once you arrive on
campus. Due to the nature of the medications used for this disorder, many physicians/
psychiatrists will not prescribe for students away from home, so these students will need to
be seen by a local physician/psychiatrist. We recommend that you check with your insurance
company to see if there are preferred psychiatric providers covered by your plan in the
Atlanta area. Please keep in mind that many area psychiatrists have a 1-3 month waiting
period for a first appointment.
While our Emory Student Health Services counseling and psychiatry professionals will no
longer treat and manage new students with ADHD/ADD themselves, they will continue to be
available to students to help find appropriate evaluation and treatment resources in the
Emory University area. We thank you for your understanding in this matter.
For more information about ADD/ADHD testing and treatment, click here.

That's it! If you have followed the above steps and provided Student Health Services with
your health forms, you are all done! Please feel free to contact us at EUSHS at (404) 727-

Full-Time MBA Course Catalog
This course will teach you the basics of financial reporting and analysis. The first part of the course deals with the
mechanics of financial statements, while the second part tackles widely used fundamental analysis techniques. Then
we will spend the last half of the course integrating the first two parts by focusing on the measurement, reporting
and analysis of common business transactions.
(1) To provide you with an introduction to marketing concepts, the process required to develop marketing strategies,
the nature of key strategic decisions (i.e., value creation, communication, delivery and extraction), the dual goals of
creating satisfaction for the customers and loyalty.
(2) For those who are intending to pursue a more in-depth examination of marketing, this course will provide you
with a set of basic tools to enable you to interact effectively with marketing specialists and a foundation for
subsequent in-depth study in other courses.
(3) Participants will be expected to learn the "language of marketing." It is also expected that by the end of the
course you will have a solid understanding of marketing issues, the major decision areas under marketing
responsibility, the basic interrelationships of those decision areas, and an appreciation of how to apply key
frameworks and tools.

562Y. Leadership
The course is intended to help you focus on the leadership demands that you will likely face upon re-entry into
managerial roles within corporations, mid-sized companies, professional services firms or large, public sector
organizations. It is becoming increasingly clear that effective managers and executives demonstrate both business
acumen and people acumen. This course concentrates on the latter – developing your skills as a leader and as a
follower. The course is designed to enhance your understanding of self, best practices in leadership behaviors, and
how to bring out the leadership potential in those around you.
591Y. Cornerstone
The Cornerstone Course (BUS 591) will provide information designed to support your academic performance as
well as enhance your student experience at Goizueta.
Attendance to BUS 591 is mandatory. Meeting the attendance requirement is a prerequisite for eligibility for
advanced course registration for the spring semester.
Accounting
513. Managerial Accounting and Control
Managerial accounting is concerned with the internal generation, communication, and interpretation of information
for both operational and strategic decision-making purposes. The focus of this course is on information internal to
the firm that has one (or both) of two roles: decision-facilitating and/or decision-influencing. Information that is
decision-facilitating affects decision-makers’ evaluations of and decisions surrounding the firm’s strategies and
operations. Information that is decision-influencing is used to evaluate manager and employee performance, and
align the incentives of the decision-maker with those of other stakeholders. Course topics include various
accounting systems, revenue and cost allocation models, identification and use of relevant information for decision-
making, performance measurement frameworks (i.e. objective versus subjective, financial versus non-financial), and
manager and employee evaluation, control, and compensation.
Investigation of special problems in selected areas of accounting. Topics include accounting for business
combinations, consolidated financial statements, SEC reporting, foreign currency accounting, government and non-
profit accounting, and partnership accounting.
This course treats in depth the traditional intermediate accounting topics and also recent developments in accounting
valuation and reporting practices. The course is designed with the belief that individuals can account for events best
if they fully understand the nature and economic consequences of accounting and reporting alternatives. While most
students take this course to prepare for careers in accounting, the course has been enriched so that students will be
knowledgeable about the needs of users of financial statements and financial accounting information, and the effects
of different accounting and reporting policies on meeting these needs.
618. Auditing
This course provides students with an understanding of attest, assurance, and audit services provided by public
accounting firms, with the primary focus on auditing. Topics covered include generally accepted auditing standards,
professional ethics, the current litigation environment, internal controls, the audit risk model and various types of
audit reports. New professional standards for consideration of fraud in financial reporting, including a study of
recent major accounting frauds, are included. Professional developments in new and expanded assurance services
also will be surveyed.
• Develop working knowledge of the institutional structure of global capital markets, with particular
attention to the home bias in investing.
• Compare US GAAP with International Financial Reporting Standards, with particular attention to quality
of earnings.
• Analyze financial statements of non-US firms from various regions, with particular attention to risk and
return.
• Develop familiarity of with the global oil and gas industry, with particular attention to risk assessment and
financial reporting and disclosure issues.
Finance
502. Economic Environment of Business
The objective of this course is to introduce students to a variety of economic concepts that may prove useful in their
business careers. These concepts will be use to examine business problems at the level of the firm and current issues
of importance to the US and world economies. Roughly half the course is devoted to topics in applied
microeconomics and half to macroeconomic topics. The analytical tools covered in Bus. 501 are sufficient
preparation for the course. No mathematics beyond high school algebra is required.
This full semester finance course is an introduction to the theory and practice of valuating a business entity.
Specifically, it covers the art and science of valuation by discounted cash flow methodologies, multiples analysis,
and precedent transactions techniques.
A significant part of the course will be dedicated to applying valuation techniques to one or more real world
situations. This will require you to build applied financial models based upon sound financial theories and thinking.
Through this work you will gain practice and perspective about transporting classroom learning to the real world.
You will have to work with teammates (most likely 5 students per team) to determine how to define a plan and work
through the ambiguities associated with valuing an actual business. In particular, each team will need to:
To ensure the application of this valuation work to the real world there will be significant involvement from
business and finance professionals from outside Goizueta. These outside professionals will actively work with you
throughout the semester and will attend your final presentations. Some will be the senior managers of the business
entities being valued. Some will be senior professionals who work in the financial services industry (e.g.,
investment bankers, valuation experts, private equity managers).
Companies are susceptible to being managed with goals that are quite different from those intended, depending on
legal and other enforcement mechanisms influencing the implementation of governance. In fact, we have
experienced a revolution in corporate governance that has seen the power shift from management to shareholders.
The culture and rules that guide boards of directors have shifted in parallel.
This shift towards shareholder power continues to accelerate and raises questions as to how far is too far?
This course will build upon the knowledge obtained in the class BUS 624, Derivative Asset Analysis. Using the
fundamental pricing technique (valuation by arbitrage) and the valuation models derived from this technique,
various extensions and applications will be examined. These will primarily be equity-based, though some fixed-
income products will analyzed. The perspective of both the derivatives dealer and the end-user of derivative
products will be taken, the latter including both hedgers and speculators. Topics to be covered include exchange-
traded versus structured products, financial engineering and product design, numerical methods (e.g. Monte Carlo
simulation) and the mathematics of derivatives pricing. Included in the course will be an introduction to investment
partnerships (a.k.a. hedge funds) and their role in the derivatives market.
This course presents information on investment in and valuation of income-producing real estate, both in public
company and direct property formats. It examines the relationship of project and entity valuation to various
financial and performance metrics, sources and uses of capital, and management decisions. Direct investment
concepts covered include cash flow analysis, net present value, internal rate of return and yield capitalization in
addition to public market measures such as Fund From Operations and financial reporting via SEC filings. The
course also focuses on different property sectors within the real estate industry along with the tools and resources
available to conduct relative valuations. Real world examples are used to highlight these analytical techniques as
are outside speakers.
687G. Global Derivatives Markets
This new Goizueta elective will be in a “master class” format, providing students with a unique exposure to the
global capital markets. The syllabus will be based upon a practitioner’s approach to applying the basics of asset
valuation and derivatives theory to the real world of trading, portfolio management and capital markets. We shall
apply theory from prior derivatives and finance classes to explore the real-world trading environment of a Wall
Street brokerage house or hedge fund. There will be real industry involvement, in the form of project work based on
actual executed trades and strategies, visiting speakers and the professor’s own industry experience.
The hands-on format will prepare the student for a career on Wall Street. Students will learn trading strategies by
being divided into “trading desks”, including interest rate, credit products, foreign exchange, equities and
commodities. A solid understanding of basic option theory will be extended to the learning about how the real-
world markets are structured; the reasoning behind each trading strategy; and discussions of why the banks allocate
capital and risk to these markets. Applications will mirror real-world practice, as each team of students will be
responsible for structuring, valuing, building, hedging and risking their own portfolios. Each team will also be
responsible for analyzing the quantitative exposure and risk on their portfolio, as well as looking at regulatory and
legal aspects of the business.
Seminar-style classes will be divided between lecture format, team work, student presentations and discussion.
Following the current financial markets will be a major component of the course, as current events will determine
the decision making strategies of each team’s projects. Each class will begin with a discussion of the markets and
recent market events. Lecture content will be tailored to the market environment and students’ financial interests.
This course will provide a comprehensive overview of the real estate development process. The course will offer
weekly seminars addressing different components of the development process including land acquisition, due
diligence, entitlements, legal considerations, design, financing, pricing, marketing, lease-up/sell-out, property
management and asset stabilization. The course will be taught by a lead instructor in conjunction with specialists
each week that focus on a particular component of the development process. In a team setting, students will perform
a simulated development throughout the semester with deliverables due at stated development milestones. The
course will conclude with presentations to seasoned real estate professionals.
This course provides for advanced application of theory and techniques for analysis of the equity position in real
estate ownership utilizing readings and cases. It considers the impact of leverage, creative financing, and federal tax
policies and concentrates on the evaluation of the basic productivity of real estate assets based on net cash flows.
Particular attention is paid to the operation of the capital markets and portfolio theory. The goal of this course is to
give the student an advanced understanding of the process of acquiring, creating, and managing real estate assets.
The emphasis is on the role of the various segments of the private sector in the real estate resource allocation
process. This course utilizes financial skills to evaluate the equity position of the real estate investor and the effect of
leverage. Special emphasis is placed on portfolio theory and the role of real estate in mixed asset portfolios.
The course will be built around a diverse set of real sustainability projects identified and defined by Emory’s Office
of Sustainability. In this respect, the student’s will be working on projects that will enable them to both learn about
and live through the challenges faced when trying to make organizations more sustainable. Each project will be
selected because of its importance to Emory and its overall sustainability goals. As such, each group will have at
least one primary point of contact within Emory to provide information, insight and support.
Because students will want to know about the generalizability of their experiences to other organizations, we will
link each of these projects with a series of similar “business-world examples”. During this matching process, we will
identify an appropriately-experienced Goizueta alumnus to serve as an additional point of contact for the student
groups. This individual will ensure that the students leverage what has been learned elsewhere as they execute their
projects here on campus.
Students will work in mixed groups (e.g., 3 BBA, 1 BBA and 1 additional Emory student). Each group will work
under the auspices of a course project manager. The final presentations will be made to a diverse group of university
stakeholders (including the primary beneficiaries of each project). These presentations and the materials that they
are based upon will be archived and used as inputs into future iterations of the class.
At the end of the course, students will be assessed based on their class participation and on how well they tackle
their assigned projects. This includes the effectiveness of their background research, the quality of their proposed
plan of action, and the usefulness (to Emory) of the outputs of their efforts.
In this project course, Goizueta MBA students will gain valuable experience developing creative solutions to the
complex challenges that social enterprises currently face. While conducting structured, detailed and systematic
research that addresses real-world problems faced by our client partners, students will gain exposure to the many
experiments and ideas that relate to their projects. Students will then apply what they are learning in business school
to develop innovative solutions that, when applied, will address the assigned problem and therefore make a visible
contribution to the many lives that are touched by their project. Our client partners will benefit from exposure to this
research, as well as the insights and recommendations that emanate from our students’ accumulated business
acumen.
• Large fixed costs for the first copy of new products and brands, but small variable costs for each additional
copy;
• Intrinsic uncertainty in the probable success of products prior to their introduction into the market; and
• An unusual relationship between product age and value: on the one hand, products initially lose their value
rapidly; on the other hand, the goods produced retain some residual value for an effectively infinite period,
raising interesting questions about the value of ‘libraries’ versus new products.
We will learn to think strategically about the nature of cultural and media products, what drives their supply and
demand, the factors that affect their value and how firms can profit from them.
Another key feature of these industries is that symbolic and aesthetic attributes are at the very core of the value of
these products. This implies that the value depends largely on third parties, e.g., critics, dealers, foundations, users,
etc. Some of these parties act as powerful intermediaries or gatekeepers as they control critical resources firms need.
Though a background in strategy or finance would benefit most student, the class has no official prerequisites.
Therefore, students will learn to use a combination of concepts and analysis to discover: where and why one
company can take actions that another cannot (or will choose not to), how important those differences can or will be
in a particular situation, how to reach insights your competitors’ do not have, and how to predict competitors. The
course will cover both long term strategy, and battlefield tactics.
This course is valuable for those who aspire to formulate and evaluate business strategy. This objective may fit well for
those who seek careers in consulting, entrepreneurship, general management, and investment banking (among others).
The specific course content is comprised of a mixture of readings, cases and visiting speakers and panels. Grades are
based on in-class performance, reading reflections and book reviews, and a multi-part project detailing the
performance and prospects of selected social enterprises. Finally, every student that enrolls in this class is required
to contribute (i.e., volunteer) 15-20 hours to a social enterprise. The form of this internship is flexible and is
determined in consultation with the professor.
632. Negotiations
This course is designed to offer students the opportunity to develop their ability to effectively negotiate in a global
business environment. The objective is to help students increase their abilities to manage conflicts as a constructive
force that enhances organizational learning and change. A critical component of the course will be self-assessment
and self-awareness. This course is offered to help students gain a deeper understanding of their own personal
dynamics and the effect of these dynamics on their negotiating styles. This course will attempt to enhance students'
skills in implementing change through effective use of power and negotiation.
The course will be taught largely through simulations to provide an opportunity to learn by doing. While readings
and discussions will provide necessary theoretical background, much of the learning will come from the application
of the theoretical lessons through the process of negotiating with others. The simulations will proceed from a
relatively simple one-on-one negotiation, to small groups, to larger team negotiations. In a parallel manner we will
proceed from relatively simple internal organizational issues (i.e., managing your boss, dealing with internal
competition among peers) to more complex relationships (i.e., customer/supplier issues, competing corporations).
In this way, the student can develop a personal style of managing situations by discovering what does and does not
work for him or her. Enrollment in the course represents an agreement to seriously negotiate every situation
assigned. This course is as much about learning to present and defend your position as it is about learning
negotiating tools and techniques.
636. Entrepreneurship
This course is designed for future entrepreneurs, consultants, investment bankers, private equity investors or
advisors. How do you realize value from a good business concept or idea? What business ideas are worth investing
in? How do you finance a growth company? We will take a business idea from its inception to its exit, the value-
creation life-cycle, focusing on the practical aspects of discriminating between good and bad business ideas; raising
growth capital; and at the right time, exiting through a sale or IPO. We will integrate strategic management and
corporate finance in practical simulations with particular emphasis on how e-commerce has changed the traditional
rules of entrepreneurship.
This is a second level class designed specifically for future entrepreneurs and business leaders. We will focus on the
“how to” of building a successful business. This class will be hands on and discussion oriented. It will provide you
with a new set of valuable “analysis” and “solution building” methodologies that you will find extremely valuable
and applicable throughout your business career. In addition, you will also learn how to respond to unexpected and
real world problems that can often cause a good business to fail. We will be using a Business Plan (that will be
provided to you), key reading assignments, individual and team exercises and in class discussions as the basis of the
course. In addition, we will have relevant business leaders share with you lessons they learned from their
entrepreneurial experiences.
We will spend the majority of our time focusing on the following essential business and entrepreneurial concepts,
and learn how to:
Design products the market “really” wants, quicker, less expensively and with lower risk;
Generate significant market interest for your products and services on a small budget;
Improve your management skills to increase your odds of achieving your business objectives;
Leverage the effectiveness of working with partners and minimize the risks associated with partnering;
Deal with the reality of business when it deviates from your business plan (as it inevitably will);
Recognize if and when to sell your business and how much it’s really worth.
In this course, we will focus on how each student can define, communicate, and exemplify his/her own authentic
principled leadership style that is best suited for the context in which he/she is leading -- with the goal of achieving
superior organizational performance. The course is designed to enhance your understanding of yourself, best
practices in leadership behaviors, and how to bring out the leadership potential in those around you. In addition to
cases and guest speakers, you will engage in leadership development assignments and contribute to the School's
leadership blog. Grades will be based on class participation, case analysis of leadership in organizations, self-
reflective assignments, and a leadership self-assessment and development plan.
Marketing
541. Ideation
Innovation lies at the heart of the new economy. Creative ideation fuels, supports and underlies the ability to
innovate. In this groundbreaking course you will learn the tools and methods as well as the self-reflection necessary
to become a revolutionary thinker in the idea-rich 21st century. You will discover how great ideas create and re-
invent corporations and provide the stimulus to move them forward. You will acquire the capacity to derive the
master-idea behind a business' potential for greatness and learn how to apply the thinking process to approaching
and analyzing business situations. In doing so, you will identify and hone your creative skills and be able to use
them more effectively in your professional as well as personal lives. Joey Reiman, Founder and Chief Thinker of
BrightHouse, the world's first Ideation Corporation, teaches this course.
This class is both highly interactive and introspective in that Master Ideas are created by groups but found outside
the Matrix of our minds, rarely visited by us. You will work in teams, outlining course packet, readings and class
discussions. You will also serve as consultants, pursuers and teachers as we learn about the Master Idea.
Taking general managerial problems and structuring them in terms of specific questions that can be researched.
Understanding primary and secondary sources of market/consumer insights, including issues in data collection.
Becoming familiar with specific techniques for analyzing market/consumer insights data once it has been collected
and using those analyses to make better management decisions.
Help you understand how market/consumer insights techniques enhance decision-making by converting market data
into insights for decisions like segmentation, targeting, product positioning, promotion, advertising response, etc.
Help you learn to view marketing phenomena and processes in ways that are amenable to decision modeling.
Introduce you to a number of examples of the successful use of analytical models in marketing.
These skills are important not only to those directly involved in market/consumer insights activities, but also to
"consumers" of market/consumer insights, particularly managers who commission and evaluate market/consumer
insights consulting studies. The course will enable you to effectively evaluate market/consumer insights proposals;
interpret, review and criticize the subsequent reports; and appraise their usefulness to management. The course will
also provide a basis from which you may pursue additional study in order to become a research specialist. By the
end of the course, you will have some experience with the planning and execution of a research project.
Do other business schools offer a similar course? The course content is benchmarked with similar courses offered at
other leading schools including Kellogg, Chicago, Wharton, Stanford, New York University and Cornell. This
course borrows elements from courses like introductory market research, data-driven marketing, marketing
engineering etc. A course like this is often a required course for marketing, brand management and management
consulting students at other top-tier programs.
How is the course material organized? The course is broadly structured to follow the steps in the market-research
process. The topics include problem definition, research design (exploratory, descriptive and causal), data-
collection methods, questionnaire design and attitude measurement, sampling schemes and data analysis. Emphasis
will be given to both the qualitative and quantitative aspects of market research.
Teams work with partner companies on data-intensive marketing projects. The key questions addressed in the
projects focus on central issues in marketing, such as segmentation and targeting, pricing, retention, marketing ROI,
and demand forecasting. Students receive hands-on faculty guidance in creating marketing models, analyzing data,
and extracting insights. Deliverables include a final presentation to the partner company. Student teams may
participate in Presentation Day event in May.
The annual marketing strategy competition affords students practical experience in addressing marketing problems
by assigning them to work on a project with partnering companies that have agreed to work with our students.
Partnering companies identify a specific marketing problem as the focus of the project. Student teams, working with
the course leader, then undertake analysis of the problem, collect data and develop a plan to address the focal issue.
Students are strongly encouraged to take a multi-disciplinary approach to exploring solutions. Deliverables at the
end of the project include a written report and a presentation.
• developing and introducing new products, and formulating strategies for managing a line of products;
• formulating strategies for building, leveraging, and defending brands;
• managing integrated campaigns to influence customer and trade behavior; and
• working with data of the types that are typically available to brand and product managers.
By the end of the course, the objective is that you will have acquired skills that will allow you to manage your
products and brands to achieve a sustainable competitive advantage, command greater price premiums, and
efficiently allocate your marketing resources.
555. Appcology
The course will explore issues associated with the emerging types of applications and services changing forms of
software ecosystems and commerce interactions. We will involve both design and development of real apps,
gizmos, widgets. Engage in New Software Environments: With the assistance and experience of actual app
developers, we will explore the design and creations of these “snack-size “applications for mobile and desktop
environments. The course will consider the opportunities for new patterns of communication between organizations
and their mobile stakeholders.
556. Analytics for e-Markets (formerly title Advanced Analytics for High-Tech)
Why does a Toyota make both the Corolla and Camry, and how is the price differential between the two products
decided? If you think pricing cars was difficult, consider how Microsoft decides to create two versions of the same
digital product, XP professional and XP home, where marginal cost of production is zero! Does it not make sense to
create one version then? How does piracy affect this decision?
This course introduces students to the economics of online markets in general and digital products in particular.
Topics covered include network economics, pricing strategies, segmentation and versioning for digital products,
impact of bundling services. Students are introduced to both analytical models as well as empirical analysis using
real world data from the entertainment industry. The course will build on your basic exposure to Decision Analysis
and Economics to include advanced topics include concepts of standards competition, lock-in strategies, etc. The
course will require knowledge of basic math/calculus and statistics, as well as familiarity with Excel/XLstat.
We will take a practice oriented approach where theory and case studies will be combined with a number of industry
speakers.
This course provides a comprehensive introduction to project management. Projects provide businesses a time-
delimited tool for improving, expanding, and innovating- the primary means for converting strategy into action.
Success differentiates top performing firms. We will use Project Management Institute (PMI) materials and focus on
discussion and analysis of business cases that convey core project management skills. We will particularly focus on
the challenge of managing projects involving dispersed team members from multiple organizations. This course can
be credited toward PMI Project Management Professional (PMP) certification as 39 Professional Development Units
(PDUs).
In addition, we revisit the underlying psychology of decision makers – in ourselves and in the others we interact
with – and develop methods for overcoming natural weaknesses and “decision traps” in strategic interactions.
652. Healthcare Ops and Technology Management
Health Care is the largest industry in the US. Faced with rising costs and quality challenges, while simultaneously
experiencing an increase in demand for limited resources, health care organizations are under unprecedented
pressure to improve efficiency and quality. This course provides key general-purpose concepts from Operations
Management, including decision making under uncertainty, quality and process improvement, capacity planning,
cost benefit analysis, and technology adoption, with special applications to health care delivery. The goal is to
provide students with a clear understanding of the challenges confronting the stakeholders in the healthcare industry,
and to demonstrate how technology and tools from Operations Management can play a critical role in solving one of
the most pressing economic and social challenges of our time.
This course on operations strategy explores how operations can create and sustain competitive advantage. The first
step in developing an operations strategy is to ask: what value proposition does the firm want to offer its customers?
We consider a variety of possible bases of competition, including lowest price/cost, highest quality, flexibility or
speed of customer response, and innovativeness. The choice of value proposition in turn suggests a series of choices
with respect to the design and management of the operating system. The course reviews how to configure an
appropriate and effective operating system – one that aligns with, supports, and delivers the chosen value
proposition. We also examine the complexities associated with global operating systems, including the hidden costs
of outsourcing and offshoring.
An important goal of this course is to frame key strategic operations issues and to provide tools to resolve them. The
cases, readings, and frameworks covered in the course are designed to serve two audiences: students who plan a
career specifically in operations, and students with broader interests who may in the future need to analyze and
improve operations for strategic purposes. The latter group may include students envisioning a future in consulting
or general management, as well as others interested in strategic management, marketing, accounting, and finance.
Increasingly this involves leveraging the capabilities of familiar and accessible technologies. The effectiveness of
such leverage critically dependent on (1) the ability to translate real-world problems into forms that such
technologies can assist with, (2) the ability to portray/visualize these translations in ways that enhance the
understanding of the dynamics of these problems, (3) the ability to structure mechanisms that derive suggested
solutions to these problems, as well as describe the robustness of these solutions to sources of uncertainty, (4) the
ability to clearly convey the justification and practicality of final solutions to others. Whereas these skills are often
assumed to be distributed among multiple roles in a firm, managers competent in all four are certainly at an
advantage in modern firms. The cherry on top of course is (5) an ability to develop tools that are not only useful to
the developer but also to the developer’s co-workers and/or clients.
This course is designed with the goal of equipping students with competencies in each of the above skill sets – the
intended product being an individual capable of developing analytically rigorous decision support tools, catered to
specific managerial environments, which can be easily handed off for robust application by a range of intended users
in those environments.
In a nutshell, Six Sigma's structured approach links business-level performance to business processes and uses well-
established tools to find and eliminate sources of waste and variation. Students who take this course will learn how
Six Sigma fits into a integrated strategic approach to process management, how Six Sigma tools can be applied to
improve both service and manufacturing operations, and how to manage Six Sigma projects in organizations. The
course includes an industry-based Six Sigma project, and reflects the educational requirements for Green Belt
certification.
Other
504. The Business of Healthcare
This course will provide students with an overview of the current structure in the healthcare industry and an
understanding of the complex inter-relationships among the players in the industry. The course will explore the
fundamental business models used by various players in the industry including providers, innovators, insurers,
employers, and government regulators. Students will become familiarized with the economic incentives and
important issues which must be addressed for individual players to create value in the U.S. healthcare system.
Students will leave the course with the ability to frame the important questions required to evaluate potential
business strategies and operational issues in each sector of the healthcare industry.
536. Washington Campus: Strategic Leadership – Business and the Public Policy Process for MBA Students
The Washington Campus is an organization sponsored by several MBA programs around the country (including
Goizueta and many others). The program will bring our students in contact with Washington's finest minds and
most experienced hands in the challenging issues of making public policy and business work. The goal is to prepare
MBA students, both as individuals and in their professional careers as managers and leaders, for more active and
effective participation in the democratic process.
Past topics have included macroeconomic policy, the private sector's responsibilities in making democracy work,
competing in the international marketplace, federal regulation, Federal Reserve policy, trade policy, national
security, the challenges of city government, science policy, decision-making in the executive branch, government
and the media, and tax policy. This year's topics will depend on the final slate of distinguished speakers.
In order to receive credit for the course, students taking this course will be required to attend the entire seminar and
to complete, pass a final exam given at the end of the week, and successfully complete a small group project that
will be due after you return from Washington, DC.
This class is held in Washington DC for one week. It is offered in two timeframes: January and March 7. Goizueta
Business School will pay for student tuition to Washington Campus, and each student will pay a $350 - $400
materials fees, their own airfare to Washington DC, lodging, food, and other transportation.

CORE VALUES
Because the Core Values are soimportant tothe kind of leader we striveto develop, we work to incorporate them into every aspect of the student experience,
throughout every course and program. Made up of students from our One-Year and Two-Year Full-Time MBA programs, the Core Values Council works to
promote our Core Values throughout every aspect of the Goizueta experience. Beginning with the Core Values Induction Ceremony inthe fall, the Core Values
Council seeks to promote events that illustrate the Core Values in action. The council works each year to integrate our Core Values into both the admissions
process and the curriculum.
In the spring of 2010, the Core Values Council authored a Core Values Statement to articulate the student spirit surrounding the Core Values. "The Goizueta
Business School Seven Core Values aremore than the heritage of Roberto C. Goizueta; they are the foundation of our intentions and the aspiration of our actions.
They are the principles by which we lead. In living these seven core values we will build a school completely distinctive in its ability to add value to our society."

8/29/2017 Core Values
VALUES
As members of the Goizueta Business School, we accept the responsibility to respect and uphold these seven core values:
COURAGE
We have the courage to drive change in the face of uncertainty and adversity
Courage is the state of being that allows one to act with confidence, resolve and self-possession in the face of uncertainty and risk. One of our most important
core values, courage can take many forms, such as leaving one's home country for the unknown challenge of earning an MBA, or the decision to walk away from a
good job to chart an entirely new career.
INTEGRITY
We demand of ourselves and of our community the highest level of unyielding integrity
Integrity is the honest quest for, and application of, one's value system. At Goizueta, we expect all members of our community to act in accordance with their
own beliefs and our shared values, even in the face of personal risk or external pressure.
ACCOUNTABILITY
We challenge ourselves and our community to uphold unwavering accountability in all of our intentions and actions
Accountabilityisthevaluethatencourages ourcommunitytohonestlyassessourstrengthsandweaknesses,keepourcommitments,andacknowledge andlearn
from our mistakes and successes.
RIGOR
We are steadfast in our academic, professional, and personal commitments in the pursuit of excellence
Rigorinstills excellence. At Goizueta, weseekchallengesthat placeus outside ourcomfortzone. Highexpectations andgoalsarethestandards that wechoose
for each other and ourselves.
DIVERSITY
We welcome and advance diversity of thought, association, and purpose
Wedeeply value diversity in the backgrounds, strengths, interests, and experiences of our students and faculty. Wecontinually strive tocontribute tothe
business community with perspectives based on a range of ideas and practices, and our success is measured by the inclusion of all voices.
TEAM
We believe that teamwork and collaboration are essential to success in academics, career, and life
The members of ateam support one another, communicate effectively and challenge each other tostrivefor excellence. The output of ateam is greater than the
sum of its parts because it unifies strong initiatives and inspires its members tochallenge conventional wisdom, ultimately realizing each member's greatest
potential.
COMMUNITY
We treat others with mutual respect and empathy in our pursuit to positively influence, serve, and represent our community
A true community is one that is based on trust, support and mutual respect. The combination of these elements creates an intellectually stimulating atmosphere
of healthy competition and risk-taking without judgment. At Goizueta, we believe our intimate size and international flavor enhance our community, and instill
values that extend beyond the classroom for the rest of our lives.
