State-of-the-Art Facilities

Few programs can offer the outstanding physical facilities of the Executive MBA program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Classes are taught in Grainger Hall, a superb, modern facility that contains classrooms dedicated to use by the Executive MBA program.

In the fall of 2008 a new wing devoted entirely to MBA education at the school of business will open. The facility will offer state of the art classrooms and technology and expanded lounge and work space for our executive MBA students.

Due to its strong reputation, the Executive MBA program draws participants from far beyond the Madison area. Out-of-town students have the option of outstanding overnight private accommodations in the Fluno Center for Executive Education. Located only two blocks from Grainger Hall, the Fluno Center is a $24 million, eight-floor facility combining state-of-the-art technology with a relaxed residential setting. Its 100 executive residence rooms provide program participants with convenient and comfortable overnight accommodations.

Among Fluno Center amenities of particular value to executives: each residence room includes a desktop computer with standard office applications and high-speed Internet access for web browsing, email and file downloads. Each room includes an additional Internet-enabled Ethernet data jack and two-line phone for simultaneous dial-up connectivity during voice calls. Public areas throughout the building allow wired and wireless Internet access using laptop or notebook computers. The cost of overnight stays in the Fluno Center is partially subsidized by the School of Business.

Both in-town and out-of-town Executive MBA students gather in the Fluno Center’s eighth-floor study pub for informal networking.
