Location & Partners
Geneva, Switzerland
The Executive MBA-Europe program is based in Geneva, home to Thunderbird's European headquarters for Executive Education. Seven of the 10 Executive MBA-Europe program modules will take place in Geneva, with two international experiences and one final module at Thunderbird's Glendale campus.
Facilities
The program modules will be delivered at one of two Thunderbird partner locations, right in the heart of the International Organizations and United Nations district.
The Graduate Institute, Thunderbird's local partner, will host several modules at its campus at Villa Barton on Lake Geneva.
Others will be delivered at the Conference Centre Varembe (CCV), part of the International Conference Center in Geneva. Both facilities have modern classrooms, wireless Internet and full dining services, and both are within one kilometer of Thunderbird's Europe offices.
For those outside of Geneva, Thunderbird has established group rates for local accommodation options during course modules.
