Initiatives
In August 2010, the Carey Business School launched its signature full-time Global MBA Program designed to "reinvent" the traditional approach to MBA education and embody the school's mission of "Teaching Business with Humanity in Mind." Since then, the Executive MBA for Advancing Professionals and Weekend MBA for Emerging Leaders (both part-time programs) have been added, joining the part-time Flexible MBA and a full-time Master of Science in Real Estate program (which also offers a part-time option). The school also offers part-time Master of Science degrees in Finance, Marketing, and Information Systems, in addition to graduate certificates in Business of Medicine, Business of Nursing, Competitive Intelligence, Financial Management, and Investments. The school counts as one of its major strengths its developing partnerships and collaborations with other Johns Hopkins schools including the university's world renowned School of Medicine and Bloomberg School of Public Health, plus the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing, Whiting School of Engineering, and Zanvyl Krieger School of Arts and Sciences. From these partnerships have come a number of joint-degree MBA programs, including the MBA/MS in Nursing, the MBA/MS in Biotechnology, the MBA/MA in Government, and the MBA/MA in Communication. Also available from the school and administered jointly with the School of Medicine is the MBA in Medical Services Management; and, with the Bloomberg School of Public Health and on a full-time basis, the MBA/Master of Public Health. In 2011, Carey began offering a MBA/MA in Design Leadership, in collaboration with the Maryland Institute College of Art. A Bachelor of Science in Business undergraduate completion degree also is offered, with a full-time option starting fall 2012 in Washington, D.C.
The Carey Business School continues to undergo significant institutional development, hiring additional full-time faculty and exploring new course and program offerings. The school is making steady progress toward gaining Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) accreditation in its goal to ascend the ranks of top-tier business institutions. From the outset, the school has been fully accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education.

Famous quotes containing the word initiatives:
“It is well known, that the best productions of the best human intellects, are generally regarded by those intellects as mere immature freshman exercises, wholly worthless in themselves, except as initiatives for entering the great University of God after death.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
