The ProMBA Experience

Transformative Learning
As a cohort-based, hybrid program, the Rutgersโ€“Camden ProMBA brings together rigorous academics and real-world decision-making. It is designed to expand how you think, sharpen your strategic judgment, and prepare you to lead with confidence in an increasingly complex business world.

Cohort Leadership Experience
Learn with a cohort of accomplished professionals from industries such as healthcare and pharmaceuticals, financial services, entrepreneurship, manufacturing, consulting, and technology. The diverse industry experience of our cohort enriches every discussion and creates a powerful professional network that supports your leadership growth long after graduation.

Executive Decision Lab
Business decisions rarely fall neatly within one discipline. Through the Executive Decision Lab, you will tackle complex business challenges that integrate finance, analytics, marketing, operations, and strategy. These applied sessions strengthen your ability to synthesize information, weigh competing priorities, and make confident leadership decisions in real-world contexts.

Global Residency
Business today is inherently global. During the programโ€™s international residency, our cohorts travel abroad for an immersive experience that explores global markets, economic systems, and cultural influences on business. Through corporate visits, expert speakers, and on-the-ground learning, our learners gain firsthand insight into how organizations operate and compete in a global environment. The cost of the international residency, including accommodations, program activities, and site visits, is covered as part of the program. Students are responsible for their own airfare to and from the U.S.

Signatures

If I am chosen and matched with an executive, I will follow through and prepare a one-page report giving honest feedback about the experience. The written summary is due by the start of the next semester. By typing my name in the box to the right I am offering my digital signature in lieu of my handwritten signature.

After the shadowing event, I will write a personal thank you letter to the executive and copy Dr. Kaufman-Scarborough and Ms. Bridget Britton for their records. By typing my name in the box to the right I am offering my digital signature in lieu of my handwritten signature.

After notified of a match, students are responsible for providing personal information to the matched executive (e.g., current resume and cover letter with information on career ambitions). The information on this application is for internal use only, for us to match you as well as possible with and executive from among our alumni database.

BLDP Application

The Spring 2023 Application is now open!ย 

Priority will be given to applications received by November 18. Applications are accepted until all seats are filled. Space is limited, so apply early!

The seminar application process is our gateway for entry into the program. Upon acceptance into BLDP, students will be emailed their acceptance letter plus a special permission number allowing registration for the BLDP seminar.

Requirements

Seminar applications are solicited each semester and require the following:

  1. Completed application form (at the bottom of this page),
  2. For students with GPA 3.0 – 3.49, two (2) letters of recommendation (one academic; one other)

Rutgers-Camden students are invited to apply to apply for enrollment in the BLDP seminar. All applicants are expected to meet both of the following selection criteria:ย  (1) have sophomore standing or above and (2) have an overall GPA of 3.0 or above. First-semester transfer students will be evaluated based on their GPA earned at Rutgers. Students who fail to meet these admission criteria may still be allowed to apply for (and possibly enroll in) the BLDP seminar, but they will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

The director balances evaluations to make final decisions on people accepted for the seminar (up to a maximum of 15-20 each semester).

Students who are admitted to the BDLP are required to adopt the BLDP Code of Conduct. A signed contract is required from each student.

Students may count activities toward โ€œleadership unitsโ€ that were initiated prior to taking a seminar, as long as those activities occured primarily during their enrollment in their academic program.

Application for Admission to BLDP Seminar

Applications for the BLDP Seminar will be ongoing until class is filled.
