As the business school of the University of Chicago, Booth has built deep roots in Chicago and the Midwest over our 120-plus years.
But the influence and impact of our faculty, students, and alumni extend throughout North America.
Our Chicago-based Weekend MBA Program and the Sokolov Executive MBA Program in North America attract the best and the brightest professionals from all around North America. Students fly in from the East and West Coasts, Houston, Minneapolis, and other major cities, and then bring new ideas, growing business expertise, and inspirational leadership back to their jobs and communities.
Our Executive Education classes train senior leaders at the biggest companies around the United States and Canada. Passionate, strong alumni groups in cities from Seattle to New York to Houston to Toronto foster community and networking year-round. Throughout North America, Booth’s faculty and their research have a profound impact on people, cities, and governments on a local and national level.
Study in the heart of America’s great metropolis in the Midwest, a world-class business city, a diverse, energetic, and dynamic community, and home to some of the world’s greatest cultural institutions, including the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the Art Institute of Chicago, and the Field Museum.
Chicago is also home to perhaps the world’s greatest architecture, with landmark buildings dotting the skyline and historical treasures from legends such as Frank Lloyd Wright dispersed throughout the area. Our Chicago campuses in Hyde Park on the city’s South Side and in downtown Chicago are home to our Full-Time MBA, Evening MBA, and Weekend MBA Programs, as well as the North America cohort of our Sokolov EMBA Program.
