The W. P. Carey Foundation’s gift — which will be matched by the university and other donors to reach a total of $50 million — will support the business school’s recent redesign of its full-time MBA curriculum, which build on Johns Hopkins’ expertise in medicine, public health and technology.
The two new pathways of the curriculum are “Health, Technology and Innovation” and “Analytics, Leadership and Innovation.” Both programs include experiential and co-curricular courses, as well as access to career development services and resources.
A portion of the gift will establish several endowed faculty positions. In attracting leading researchers and academics, the James Carey Distinguished Professorships will allow the business school to “increase the impact of our cutting-edge and interdisciplinary research, including research related to the business of health,” Alexander Triantis, PhD, dean of the school, said in a statement.
