Little School of Management, was established as Americas first corporate university focused on delivering a practical business education for managers. The teaching pedagogy was different from other business schools due to its emphasis on action learningapplying classroom theory in the real world. This methodology was honed over 40 years and is central to Hults pioneering approach to practical business education today.

Our hands-on approach to learning helps you become job-ready from day one.

26

27hult.edu

Employers want graduates who are job-ready. Weve designed our curriculum so that you dont just study abstract theoryyou also get hands-on experience. Our innovative curriculum is based on three components, Learn, Experience, Action Project: LEAP.

Our LEAP Method

1. LearnHults LEAP method is an integrated approach to learning that enables you to be able to put classroom theory into practice.

Start your Master by learning theory and business fundamentals in the classroom. Like most top business schools, Hult faculty employ the case study method to illustrate how business principles are applied in practice. Professors encourage thought-provoking class discussions to facilitate the exchange of ideas and the sharing of experiences. Hult provides you with the theory, tools, terminology, and trends to give you a broad perspective on business. However, unlike other top business schools, Hult goes beyond the theoretical to the practical.

2. ExperienceExperience is a critical component of our LEAP method. Your year will include panel discussions with industry experts, company visits, and exclusive networking opportunities. These features will give you an opportunity to relate theory to practice.

Meaningful dialogue with prominent business leaders will offer valuable insights into how executives make decisions in a fast-moving, competitive environment with imperfect information.

Past classroom speakers include a senior executive of the Real Madrid Football Club, who explained the economics of running one of the worlds largest sports franchises; the co-founder of Apple Computer, who discussed how to maintain innovation in a changing business environment; and the head of a major Silicon Valley venture capital firm, who advised students on how to approach and evaluate potential venture capital opportunities.

3. Action ProjectParticipate in a real-world project for a major company. Advised by a mentor (typically an experienced management consultant), small teams of students compete with one another to develop a business strategy for a leading multinational.

No other business school offers such access to key decision-makers of the worlds leading companies. Over a period of six weeks, each team will consult with company managers to make a business case for the development of a novel idea. Each team will present its recommendations to a senior company leader.

Hults Action Projects are designed to emphasize competition, innovation and growth. Though the scope of Action Projects varies, projects focus on a central challenge facing the senior executive team of the company.

A strong understanding of how the world is interconnected through finance, marketing, operations, technology, and strategy gives students an immediate head start to launch their careers. Hults Master of International Business (MIB) degree helps students acquire practical business knowledge with a focus on international and cross-cultural understanding of the marketplace. This degree is particularly well-suited to recent university graduates (business and non-business majors) who do not have extensive work experience. This degree is also appropriate for those with work experience who seek to move into the international business realm.

Curriculum combines hard skills with lessons in decision making and strategy

Hults MIB curriculum delivers an understanding of todays global marketplace. Initially, students focus on

learning hard skills in international finance, marketing, operations, and strategy. Subsequently, graduates also gain the analytical, problem-solving, and critical-thinking skills necessary to make decisions in a rapidly evolving, cross-cultural world. Through a combination of case study discussions and lectures, students will also acquire presentation and communication skills necessary to work and excel in multinational settings and companies.

Hults Global Rotation Program

An international perspective is crucial to understanding todays business issues.

think of growth channels for multinational companies. MIB students are given the chance to apply what they have learned in a true business setting, helping them get job-ready for their future.

How your Action Project works

We place you in small teams and assign each team to a leading business or company to help solve a real business problem. Each team is led by a faculty advisor. At each of Hults international campuses, we have created partnerships with leading global multinationals and business executives. Within each of these companies, five student teams work intimately with a high-level executive in charge of growing the company. Student teams are further motivated to work at high standards by competing with each other.

Over six weeks, these teams meet with the company executive(s) four times while facing the task of developing a full-fledged plan to grow the company. Simultaneously, they are aided through the process by one of Hults world-class consulting coaches. During this distinctive project, each team will develop insights about the particular industry and business, identify breakthrough ideas, develop a business concept, and build an implementation plan to present to senior executives and CEOs.

Master ofSocial EntrepreneurshipHults Master of Social Entrepreneurship is a highly practical program focused on how to apply business skills to important global social problems. Learn how to deploy innovative business solutions to large-scale social issues.

What is social entrepreneurship?

Social entrepreneurs are often from the corporate sector or people who are business entrepreneurs, who are passionate about social issues. They think about ways to combine resources in innovative ways to address social, political or environmental concerns as any profit-making enterprise does. The most important difference between a traditional business and a social enterprise is that profit is not the main motive. The enterprise must be sustainable and not incur losses, but the overall driving force is about maximizing social impact.

Why is social entrepreneurship important now?

Solutions to global social problems need innovative and entrepreneurial approaches more than ever. Increasingly, central governments are reducing their expenditures on social issues, either unable to fund expensive programs, or concluding that traditional methods have failed to have impact. At the same time, needs are becoming greater and more complex. Evidence indicates that social entrepreneurs are making a difference, often in areas where government and international development may have failed. In some countries, governments are looking into how social entrepreneurs are solving problems.

The scope of social entrepreneurship

Social entrepreneurs tackle major social issues, from increasing the availability of quality education for low-income students to fighting poverty in developing countries. Social entrepreneurship takes place in both non-profit and for-profit organizations, and successful social entrepreneurs must build relationships with corporations, charities, and governments alike. Social entrepreneurs must be knowledgeable about contemporary global issues, solution-oriented, and adept at mobilizing human, financial, and political resources to support their project.

44

Pragmatic learning outcomes

Hults pioneering Master of Social Entrepreneurship (MSE) gives you the skills necessary to engage in successful issue-advocacy, problem-solving innovation, and project development. Graduates will be empowered to act as effective leaders of change, either via new ventures of their own or through existing for-profit, non-profit, and governmental institutions. The program emphasizes building core business skills optimized for socio-political contexts.

Action Project provides hands-on experience

The capstone of Hults Master programs, the Action Project, calls upon students to put knowledge and skills to the test as they become consultants for actual organizations working on real-world challenges. Social entrepreneurship is about thinking and doing, and the Hult program is unique in placing you in a position to do both, not just in the classroom, but in front of a real client.

Become part of Hults commitment to social change
