University of Miami Patti and Allan Herbert Business School

Since 1948, the Miami Herbert Business School has been offering a full-time MBA with experiential learning opportunities, a focus on sustainability, and a global perspective to deliver the experience and mindset needed to shape the future of business.

The B-school is outside of the city, in Coral Gables – a suburb of Miami. It is situated southwest of downtown Miami and is known for its upscale neighborhoods and beautiful architecture.

Kim Migoya, director of graduate admissions and a Miami Herbert graduate herself, says, “The best part of the Miami MBA is our Miami Herbert family—dedicated students, engaged faculty, committed staff, and charismatic alumni mentors all focused on transforming lives makes for a rewarding and purposeful experience for all. Not to mention the University of Miami Herbert Business School’s campus is stunning!”

The two-year full-time MBA curriculum incorporates STEM at the core, and students begin taking elective courses in year one.

The curriculum is designed to help students make a greater impact during their summer internship between the years. The curriculum’s core classes are centered around three primary themes: Innovation and Strategy, Decision Making with Data, and Leadership and Teams. Students take a deeper dive into specific areas of interest through advanced electives or through specializing in areas such as sustainable business, healthcare management, entrepreneurship, international business, and commercial real estate.

MBA students have access to a variety of co-curricular events and activities including distinguished speaker events with a diverse range of lectures from Nobel Prize winners, CEOs, and cultural icons. Miami Herbert Business School hosts a number of business conferences, providing students further access to business leaders and insights on current industry trends.
Students also get involved in the many graduate business clubs and organizations where they can develop leadership skills, grow their professional network, and engage with the community around them.

“I think what makes this program relevant to today’s business leaders is its focus in global education, whether it is through having a diverse class of around 40 percent international students or promoting programs such as global business consulting and the different global trips where… students can learn and understand how business is carried out in different cultures,” says MBA Dipeeka Bastola on Miami Herbert’s website.
