Olin Business School

The education we deliver prepares our students to thoughtfully make difficult decisions—the kind that can change the world.

Through our values-based, data-driven approach, we equip our students to lead in knowing not only which problems require attention, but also which solutions will do the most good.

Our global-mindedness, coupled with experiential learning, fosters healthier relationships between business and humanity—something society is calling for more than ever.

And as our entrepreneurial spirit challenges the current models, we’re pioneering innovation that opens the door for positive, sustainable progress.

Before you dive into the MBA core curriculum, you’ll be “on the road,” gaining a better understanding of the context in which businesses operate and how businesses adapt to these differences. This immersive experience takes you from the inner halls of the US government in Washington, DC, to Barcelona, Spain, a hub of business, trade, and manufacturing for centuries, to Shanghai, China’s commercial center and home to many of the country’s largest businesses. By the end of this unique summer semester, you will have completed 16 credit hours of the required 67 hours for the MBA—about 40 percent of the required 41.5 core hours.
