YSE SOM Joint Degree Program
Fostering a community of change-makers
The YSE/SOM Joint Degree Program is the oldest of its kind in the United States. It was started in 1982 with the mission to create thoughtful, passionate and informed leaders equipped with practical skills - from finance to forestry.
Single Degree
A two-year degree program in business administration or environmental management.
The Yale School of Management offers a two-year Master’s in Business Administration degree based around an integrated curriculum and raw case studies. A rigorous set of core requirements is balanced with opportunities to take electives within the Yale School of Management and across the university. See the SOM website for more information.
The Yale School of the Environment offers four distinct Master’s degree tracks, with a specialization in business and the environment: Environmental Management, Environmental Science, Forestry, and Forestry Science. Each of these tracks requires two years; opportunities for electives depends on the chosen program. For further information, please visit the YSE website.
The Center is available to help students enrolled in one of these programs who are interested in pursuing a degree focused on the intersection of business and the environment.
MBA for Executives
The Yale School of Management's exclusive Executive MBA program.
This 22-month program is designed for working professionals, combining the rigor of the Yale MBA integrated core curriculum and leadership development program with advanced study in a chosen area at the nexus of business and society: healthcare, asset management or sustainability.
The sustainability track of the EMBA focuses on relevant imperatives facing modern organizations: sky- high commodity prices, resource scarcity, and growing public scrutiny of business operations throughout the entire value chain, to name a few. The program draws on faculty with deep professional and academic experience across various sectors, and within federal regulatory bodies. At the heart of the EMBA is a radical reconception of sustainability not as a question of corporate responsibility, but as an opportunity for competitive advantage and corporate success.
