Founded in 1917, the business school of Washington University in St. Louis is one seven of the university’s seven academic schools. Its MBA programmes started in 1950, a doctoral programme in 1958 and its executive MBA programme in 1983.

Further historical markers include offering a Shanghai-based Executive MBA degree (2002), with other programmes developed with partner universities in Asia and Europe.

Olin’s Executive MBA (EMBA) is offered in St. Louis, Shanghai, and Mumbai.

Meanwhile, doctoral courses are the PhD in business that emphasises economics and helps students for careers in scholarship and teaching, and the doctor of business administration for students looking for advanced careers in corporations, banks, government agencies and research-oriented consulting positions.

Olin has a number of research centres. They include the Bauer Leadership Center; the Boeing Center for Supply Chain Innovation; Center for Customer Analytics and Big Data; Center for Research in Economics and Strategy and the Wells Fargo Advisors Center for Finance and Accounting Research which encourages faculty and students to work more closely with business.
