An Interactive and Deeply Engaging Classroom

iMSM courses are interactive. Professors engage with you personally. And working with classmates is routine. The iMSM includes both an online global classroom and a series of team projects, which give you experience applying what you learn.

Each course is composed of three elements:

• On-Demand Component : Get the fundamentals. Complete a weekly module and assignment that develops your core business knowledge.
• Live Session : Join the global classroom. Attend and participate in a live lecture with your professor and classmates.
• Individual or Team Project : Apply what you learn. Complete a weekly assignment designed by your professor.

Faculty and specially trained student support teams are also available for in-person office hours outside of class.

Interactive Online Learning Experience

Senior faculty are focused on engaging with online management students. They teach and discuss the highest-level content, while lower-level material is delivered by our Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs).

Gies’ online classrooms encourage side conversations that spark creative, innovative thinking – and faculty dip into those conversations as both teachers and co-creators of knowledge.

Networking Opportunities

This business management program is intentional about its commitment to the student experience and positive engagement. We offer a variety of opportunities for students to meet each other, staff, and faculty. At these optional in-person experiences, students are able to network and meet their classmates. They can connect with current faculty and discuss the curriculum outside of the classroom. Whether related to coursework, professional development, or for purely social reasons, these experiences can enhance the iMSM experience immensely.

We’re More Than Business. Our Numbers Prove It.

Today, Gies faculty prepare more than 6,000 future business leaders from around the world to put their purpose into practice and provide transformative leadership in a global economy.

About Our Name

In 2018, alumni Larry and Beth Gies gave their name and an incredibly supportive gift of $150 million to the College – as we officially became Gies College of Business. This amazing opportunity enhances our core mission of providing an educational experience that extends beyond business.

As founder, president, and CEO of Madison Industries, Larry asks something special of his employees, his colleagues, and himself. By personally learning how powerful it is to connect what he does every day to a larger purpose, Larry now asks others to "find your why."

Dean Jeffrey R. Brown believes our "why" at the College has grown stronger as a few differentiators take shape from Larry's generous gift. First, we are further expanding a curriculum dedicated to finding and exploring innovation in business. Second, we can now provide even greater access to life-changing business education. Third, we are hiring more faculty and installing the resources needed to inspire the next generation of business leaders.
