SUMMARY
This fifth volume in the Research in Management Education and Development (Information Age Publishers) series will cover new visions for the curriculum design and pedagogic delivery of graduate management education, with a focus on Master’s programs. Recent critiques of traditional MBA programs by Pfeffer and Fong (2002) and Mintzberg (2004) have emphasized the overly analytic emphasis of MBA instruction, the stifling of creativity, innovation and integration within functional teaching and research silos, the disconnect between theory and practice, between knowing and doing, and between rigor and relevance.
