Few executive MBA programmes are older or more prestigious than those offered by Columbia Business School and the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School. Columbia University's EMBA programme, which began in 1968, is the second-oldest in the world; Wharton University followed in 1975. In addition to being affiliated with well-known Ivy League universities in major cities, both EMBA programmes routinely compete for the top ranks in national rankings.
