The program begins in June with a full 11-week term overview of the business foundations. This term is designed to sharpen and refresh skills and business knowledge while preparing students for the upcoming terms’ intensive course load. All students participate in a minimum of four courses; the number and selection of courses, however, are based on an analysis of individual students’ academic backgrounds.
In September, students begin the advanced curriculum with their cohort, with whom they will study for the remaining three terms. Students start with the Inter-term, an introduction to upcoming courses and a weeklong business simulation. In each of the successive terms, the courses are delivered via a combination of real-time and online classes, coupled with business visits to complement the program structure and enrich the learning atmosphere.
Each term includes a number of mini-modules, or short seminars designed to cover new and interesting topics in today’s business world. Students are required to attend at least three of these modules to enhance the overall experience.
In the final term, students participate in a seminar held in an international location to gain invaluable global business experience. On the 10- to 12-day trip, students take part in classroom discussions, hear guest lecturers, and visit business and cultural sites.
