Yale SOM Students Head Overseas

Eight groups of first-year MBA students from the Yale School of Management will travel abroad for two weeks in January as part of the School's newly-instituted International Experience requirement.

Part of the new curriculum introduced at Yale this year requires MBA students to study abroad. The two-week programs are led by Yale SOM faculty and include lesson plans incorporated with the MBA curriculum.

Different groups of students will examine economics, business, and industry in China, Japan, Singapore, India, Argentina, Costa Rica, England and Poland, and Tanzania and South Africa.
