Fields of the Future
At McDonough, we believe business can and should be a force for good in the world. We embrace a “business and” approach, where business principles can be applied to addressing the world’s most complex issues. As such, we are focused on several critical fields of the future that will shape society for years to come: AI, analytics, and the future of work; the business of health; and the business of sustainability. As a result, McDonough prepares students to make a difference through the careers of today – and of tomorrow.
