MBA Toolbox
The accelerated one-year MBA is very demanding and requires that students be up to speed in a few skill sets in the outset. In particular, students must be able to read and understand business cases, perform basic financial and quantitative analysis, present data and analysis logically and clearly, manage time effectively and write clearly in English. The MBA Toolbox provides preparation for the program by giving students four weeks to practice case analyses, review and improve their accounting and finance skills, develop their oral presentation abilities and acquire the basic tools to manage a diverse cross-cultural team. Critical quantitative and communication skills will be assessed with constructive feedback provided. Basic fluency with business terms and concepts will also be addressed.
