What is JesuitMBA?
THE JESUIT MBA DIFFERENCE
The Society of Jesus (Jesuits) was founded in 1540 by Saint Ignatius Loyola. It is the largest religious order of the Roman Catholic Church. For centuries, Jesuits have influenced mathematics, astronomy, architecture, law, medicine, and most academic pursuits. A primary mission of the Jesuits is education.
Many of our students choose our programs because they are beneficiaries of Jesuit education through high school or college. But JesuitMBA schools welcome students of all faiths. The principles of a Jesuit education are universal.
There are twelve established characteristics of learning in the Jesuit tradition. They are:
- Pursuit of Excellence
- Respect for the World: Its History and Mystery
- Learning from Experience
- Contemplative Vision Informed by Hope
- Development of Personal Potential
- Critical Thinking and Effective Communication
- Appreciation of Things Both Great and Small
- Commitment to Service
- Special Concern for the Poor and Oppressed
- Linking Faith with Justice
- International and Global Perspective
- Discerning Mindset
These characteristics, along with a strong focus on business ethics, develop leaders with strong analytical skills, technical competence, and social responsibility. MBA graduates of Jesuit colleges and universities are highly sought after by corporations for their integrity and high performance.
