Cornell University The Johnson School at Cornell University

What happens to your life while you're earning an MBA? Here at the Johnson School, our AMBA degree program yields incredible growth. In addition to rigorous academic work, you'll gain valuable personal experiences. They're all part of being immersed in a close-knit, stimulating trio of communities: The Johnson School, Cornell University, and Ithaca, New York. Get a feel for what students think, feel and experience through their blogs and road diaries.

The Johnson School is, by design, an intense, collaborative community—one in which relationships are formed quickly and last a lifetime. We choose to remain a small school so that all of our students and faculty can work closely together. Our student clubs provide abundant opportunities to practice skills. Our culture is infused with a genuine appreciation of one another and fosters a style of teamwork that puts our graduates at the top of recruiters' lists. The facilities and services at your disposal are state of the art. Your significant others are warmly included. After graduation, Johnson School alumni and faculty remain your community of colleagues and friends.

Cornell University is a dynamic, eclectic community with a wealth of intellectual, technological, and physical resources. Our faculty and students are characterized by a passion for teaching and learning and a genuine desire to reach out to one another and the world. One of the largest Ivy Leagues, Cornell has a vigorous independent spirit and deeply ethical character all its own. Our diverse faculty and students explore a vast range of subjects and involve themselves in a huge list of activities. Being part of the Cornell community also means being part of a vast, global network of engaged Cornell alumni after you graduate.

Ithaca, New York, which surrounds us, has been named one of the most livable places on earth-and one of America's best biking towns, one of the best places to vacation, the healthiest city in the Northeast?and much more. With more restaurants per capita than New York City, an abundance of cultural organizations, beautiful natural surroundings in the Finger Lakes wine country, a thriving entrepreneurial environment, and loads of child-friendly activities, Ithaca is a great place to call home-for a year or a lifetime.
