Excerpt from Executive Courses -- ““The Executive Education model at NYU Stern allows us to blend the exceptional academic expertise of our tenured and clinical faculty with real-world experience from industry experts. This creates a win-win for participants, giving them a base of actionable knowledge that they can then immediately apply to their individual workplaces and job searches,” she states.” 

Excerpt from Poets&Quants — “In short, for those evaluating ‘best in class’ in experiential learning, Stern sets the bar. It’s embedded in the curriculum, broad in scope, aligned with industry, and accessible at scale. Its leadership isn’t accidental—it’s the product of a deliberate effort to make learning as dynamic and real as the business world students are preparing to lead.”

Excerpt from Los Angeles Times -- “In connection with the award, Singleton Foundation donated to each honoree’s charity of their choice. Langone designated his $250,000 gift to the NYU Stern Langone Part-Time MBA program, which is designed for working professionals. It offers training in cutting-edge leadership skills, honed by world-class faculty, and leverages NYU’s powerful networking opportunities to connect with industry experts and business leaders.”

“‘The NYU Stern School of Business is honored to see one of our most distinguished graduates, Ken Langone, recognized with the Singleton Foundation’s CEO Prize,’ said Bharat Anand, dean of NYU Stern School of Business, in a statement.”
 

Excerpt from Fortune -- “‘If there’s a large company that might say, ‘Well, we’re not planning to hire as much because of AI,’ or maybe ‘We’re letting people go because of AI,’ I think there’s a little bit of smoke and mirrors there,’ Robert Seamans, director of New York University Stern’s Center for the Future of Management, tells Fortune.”
 

NYU Stern Vice Dean for Faculty and Research and Professor Mor Armony has advanced operations management research through her innovative work. 
 

Excerpt from Fortune -- “At Harvard, Columbia, and NYU (Stern) placements have held up better, underscoring how competitive the path has become.”
 

Excerpt from Financial Times — “This article exposes the behaviour of ‘madness of mobs’ rather than the more often talked about ‘wisdom of crowds’ through the lens of social network effects on markets. In our ‘Behavioural Finance and Market Psychology’ Executive MBA course, we investigate efficiency and behaviour via quantitative models and qualitative surveys. We study how, when and why the models give different results.”

On December 10th, Alan Guarino, Vice Chairman at Korn Ferry, joins Fubon Fintech Director Kathleen DeRose for a discussion about the fast-changing environments of tech, finance and fintech.

Excerpt from Middle East Economy — “‘International financial centers are one of the clearest ways to observe how the global economy is shifting. With the FCCI and the Institute for Global Financial Competitiveness, we wanted to move beyond league tables and provide a research-based view of how cities are engaged in building financial capacity. The strong performance of cities located in the Gulf region shows how fast new hubs can move when policy, regulation, talent and innovation are aligned,’ said Rob Salomon, dean of Stern at NYUAD.”

Excerpt from Poets&Quants — “Perhaps most importantly, pay is up for Stern MBAs.

The NYU Stern Technology Association and Fubon Center invites you to a Tech Leadership Lab discussion featuring Jen Wong, COO of Reddit.

Excerpt from Poets&Quants — “What do you think makes you stand out as a professor? I am not sure, I would love to know what my students think! If I had to guess, I’d say it’s my enthusiasm for strategy. I am genuinely excited for each class, and I work hard to foster an intellectual environment where students are comfortable sharing their ideas. I truly believe that in a class like Strategic Management where the business problems are complex and subjective, everyone has a nuanced angle into the same problem. Each angle is valuable, and I seek to get as many angles into our discussions as possible. I believe that enriches everyone’s thought processes and strengthens our analytical conclusions.

“Otherwise, it could be the breadth of materials I pull into our class discussions: I’m equally likely to engage in a deep analysis of Boeing and Airbus’s rivalry as I am to unpack Mariah Carey’s strategic choices.”

Excerpt from Poets&Quants — “What do you think makes you stand out as a professor? I aspire to create a classroom culture that encourages connections between students. The hour or so that students spend off of their devices, debating ideas and bouncing thoughts off one another feels increasingly rare yet precious. I am staunchly low-tech in my classroom approach, limiting technology and prioritizing experiential learning and face-to-face interaction above all else. The most gratifying thing for me is when my students come up to me after the semester ends and actually thank me for banning their phones and laptops during class!”

Excerpt from Poets&Quants — “Another program differentiator, say students, is Stern’s wide array of experiential learning opportunities. The 2025 recipient of P&Q’s “Best In Class” Award for Experiential Learning, NYU Stern is able to tap into leading companies and industries though its New York City locale…where a sizable chunk of its alumni base resides. Along with conscientiously injecting company partnerships and projects into its curriculum, Stern delivers a series of mini-internships where students gain intensive, relevant experience long before they graduate.”
