The state of the MBA is under scrutiny as new programs continue to launch, tuition continues to rise, and competition for prospective students among MBA programs continues to increase. Therefore, students are interested to know their ROI on the MBA degree and how institutions will support them to secure employment. Simultaneously, the continued transgressions of corporations provoke calls from the community for businesses to consider community and not just shareholder value when making business decisions. Business schools and MBA programs have an opportunity to prepare students for both the job market and making positive impacts in their communities. This study is predicated on the need to better understand how employability is integrated into values-based MBA programs and how the institutions values are informing this integration. This study examined three cases at three Catholic institutions with values-driven missions and MBA programs in Texas. The study revealed both similarities and differences between the three case studies around how employability initiatives are integrated into the curriculum, including selection of MBA core coursework, and through co-curricular programs and services such as networking events, capstone projects, and access to career development services. The study also revealed where the institution's values inform employability features of the program, in the core curriculum, individual courses, and career development services. The study concluded that values-based MBA programs incorporate employability strategies in a variety of ways in both the curricular and co-curricular experiences of the students. The values of the institution are also integrated in key employability fixtures both in and outside of the classroom. The results of the study offer insights to academic leaders interested in incorporating impactful employability strategies into the student experience that highlights where the institution's values can impact these employability initiatives.
