Executive MBA Alumni Committee
The Executive MBA Alumni Committee was reorganized in 2008 as a subcommittee of the College of Business Alumni Association. It seeks to serve the interests of all EMBA alumni in connecting with each other and with their alma mater. The committee oversees the strategic direction of the alumni organization and its connection to the EMBA Program and University, organizes alumni events, and markets opportunities for engagement.
