Hult International Business School to Open New San Francisco Campus
LONDON, Oct. 28 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
- World's Only Global Business School to Open San Francisco Campus in
2010; Existing Campuses in Boston, London, Dubai, and Shanghai Address
Surging Demand for Hult's One-year MBA Program
Hult International Business School, the world's only true global business
school, has announced plans to open a new campus in San Francisco in 2010,
adding to its existing stable of campuses in Boston, London, Dubai, and
Shanghai.
Hult already gives students the edge with a one-year MBA program, in
which coursework and projects can be completed in half the time of other
schools. Beginning in 2010, Hult students can also study in San Francisco,
taking advantage of the school's unique global rotation program which allows
them to study in multiple locations during their program, embarking on an
internationally transformative experience that no other business school can
offer.
"Imagine taking a course in Islamic banking in Dubai, or being in
Shanghai while studying how to do business in China," says Hult's President
Dr. Stephen Hodges. "That kind of total experience builds a true
understanding of how business is conducted throughout the world."
A compressed timeframe in obtaining a degree, plus the opportunity for
substantive study abroad, puts Hult on the forefront of modern learning,
attracting students from over 80 countries. Other MBA programs may have
partnerships with schools overseas or options for study tours, but neither
offers an opportunity for real-world education in a city where students can
aim to launch their careers.
"A study tour is more like a business trip, and there's limited
continuity with school partnerships, so the experience is patchy," says
Hodges. "We've selected cities that are business centers and where there is
strong demand from employers."
San Francisco, with its rich history of nurturing high-technology
companies and other innovative businesses, is an ideal locale for Hult's
centrally located campus.
About Hult International Business School: Hult, formerly known as the
Arthur D. Little School of Management, is the first global business school
with operations in Boston, San Francisco, London, Dubai, and Shanghai. The
school offers a range of business-focused programs including MBA, Masters,
and Bachelor degrees. Hult is ranked amongst the top 50 business schools in
the world by the Economist and is ranked in the top 100 by the Financial
Times.
