The CAU-Leader MBA program offers a total of six advanced specialization tracks—Marketing Communication, Media & Entertainment Management, Financial Information & Asset Management, Business Analytics and Digital Transformation, ISOM (Information Systems & Operations Management), and Management & Organizations/Strategy—allowing students to deepen their expertise in each area.
The CAU-Leader MBA program is designed to meet the new demand for business education in 21st-century growth fields, taking into account Chung-Ang University’s long-term strategic direction and internal capabilities. In addition to general business, the program offers six specialized tracks aimed at building global competitiveness.
The CAU-Leader MBA program typically spans four semesters (two years), with a total of 45 credits required for graduation. Students must complete at least five out of seven core courses related to business management, while the remaining credits can be earned from elective courses. Additionally, if students complete 6 or more credits from the elective courses in a given track, they will receive a concentration certification for that specialization.
In addition to the regular semesters, a short-term study program called Independent Study is offered during summer and winter sessions to enhance practical skills. This course allows students, under the supervision of a faculty advisor, to explore field-centered issues in depth. Students can engage in various hands-on research projects such as corporate case study development, industry projects, and domestic or international short-term study programs, collaboratively designed with their advisor.
Furthermore, students are required to participate in at least two sessions of the Distinguished Lecturer Series before graduation. This non-credit course invites top executives and industry experts from various domestic and international companies to deliver open lectures.
