  • Our MBA program is recognized as world-class

  • Hult offers a top-ranked MBA program. In 2008, Hult was ranked the 31st best business school in the world and 16th best in the U.S. by the Economist Intelligence Unit. This ranking recognizes our uniquely international focus, the quality of our program and faculty and our exceptional student body and alumni network. Our students’ ability to find employment and increase their earning power, as well as the diversity of the industries they enter after completion, are key factors in this ranking. Hult International Business School is a fully accredited member of the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC) and is also accredited by the Association of MBAs (AMBA). Hult is the first U.S. program ever to be accredited by AMBA.

  • Our MBA pays for itself in half of the time of other programs

  • Compared to other top business schools around the world, Hult represents a very smart investment. Equipped with a Hult MBA, our students command competitive starting salaries. In combination with the fact that our one-year MBA costs less and gets students back to the workforce sooner, our graduates are, on average, able to recoup their investment in just over a year. This is far quicker than traditional two-year U.S. MBA programs or more expensive one-year European MBA programs. This means that a Hult MBA not only amplifies your earning power, but also maximizes your time and resources. Please see the chart below for a comparison to other programs."

  • Our global career services network offers international support

  • Hult's international student body is unmatched by any other U.S. business school. With a student body that is more than 95 percent international, our students are looking for career opportunities beyond geographical boundaries. At Hult, we have established a global career services network with dedicated resources in key job markets to support international careers. Our career services teams are based in Boston, London, Dubai and Shanghai.

  • We are pioneers in Action Learning

  • Action Learning integrates classroom teaching with real-life situations. At Hult, we focus on "learning by doing," not simply sitting in a classroom, but actually going out in the real world and applying the tools and concepts to real business situations. Theory is taught in the classroom through lectures and required readings. The theory is put to test in real-life situations through case studies of actual business problems and business simulations. An integral part of our curriculum is the Action Learning Program, which gives students a chance to apply the skills they have learned in the classroom as part of a small team focused on solving a current business problem for a real company.

  • We attract a truly international student body

  • For 40 years, we have been training leaders from all over the world - from Spain to South Africa, Iceland to India and China to Chile. At Hult International Business School, our student body represents more than 30 countries. Our students are internationally experienced professionals, who have an average age of 30 years and an average of six years' work experience. The breadth of experience, insights and cultural perspectives that our students bring to the classroom creates an extraordinary learning experience.

  • Our world-class faculty possess real-world business experience

  • Our faculty has outstanding academic credentials combined with real-life experience running and managing successful businesses. Hult professors
    are seasoned professionals with expertise in teaching international managers. 80 percent have extensive international experience and many are citizens of countries other than the United States. Many of our faculty are practitioners and are actively engaged as directors of corporations, consultants or managers of growth companies.
