The University encourages international students to attend its MBA program. Candidates from more than 30 different countries live and study on campus, creating a global village. The students bring unique cultural practices and perspectives on business, providing an environment in which alternative ideas and ways of thinking are freely exchanged. When international students graduate, they take with them cutting-edge business practices and techniques that make them successful wherever they go. The cultural and educational exchange provides a perfect training ground for both international and American students.
