7. An MBA is your ticket around the globe. With today’s global economy, most schools offer exchange programs or courses at worldwide partner institutions from Singapore to France. For example, The University of Chicago’s Graduate School of Business has a London campus; Kellogg has partnership schools in Hong Kong and Germany; and Columbia offers an EMBA-Global joint program with London Business School.
8. An MBA creates your legacy now. Ethics and community reinvestment have become hot topics for business schools, sparking new and progressive modules for outreach and education. For example, Dartmouth College’s Tuck School of Business developed the Allwin Initiative for Corporate Citizenship to proactively integrate social and environmental consciousness into their MBA curriculum. Business graduates from many schools go on to work at nonprofits and invest in community projects globally. Business degrees craft new and exciting careers for women, increase professional gender equality and create positive role models for our daughters.
