Multicultural Team Experience
The International MBA immerses
you in a multicultural learning community. At the program's start in Beijing
you're assigned to a team of fellow students. You and your teammates
collaborate on class projects, exchange ideas, and challenge each other with
diverse ways of thinking, doing, and leading.
Teamwork extends beyond course work; you live with your classmates and down
the hall from School of Management faculty and staff.
When you return to Boston, you engage in further collaborative work, through
BU's unique Team Learning approach.
The International MBA Program
This program begins with intensive coursework in Beijing and Shanghai,
China, from early May until late July. Students then return to Boston to
complete the remaining MBA coursework, possibly including an international
field seminar.
Students have the option of accelerating their program to 12 months (May to
May) as shown by taking an additional course during the spring semester. They
may also spread the credits out (to 14 or 18 months) for a multitude of
reasons, including taking additional electives or completing a summer
internship.
