Integrative Exercise
Terry MBA students participate in a business case simulation, known as the "Integrative Exercise", with their four-person team at the culmination of the core curriculum. The challenge asks students to apply their newly acquired knowledge from their foundation courses to solve a real business problem. Unfolding over a four-day period, the business case requires each team to make a series of daily business decisions, drawing on MBA students’ analytical, creative problem-solving and team facilitation skills.
Competition for the highest ranking is fierce. Coupled with the pressure of its short timeframe, the Integrative Exercise is a simulation of the demands to deliver results in a real business. On the last day, each team presents their case to a faculty "board of directors," answering key questions from the "board." MBA teams must submit an executive summary with supporting documents pertaining to their decisions and recommendations for the case problem.
Return on Investment
The Terry MBA is one of the best bargains in education. According to Forbes magazine, Terry MBAs were able to recoup all their educational investment within 3.7 years of graduation, 19th fastest among all schools that have a total cost for tuition and foregone salary of under $95,000.
