Though the calendar year is winding down to a close, the Economist is already gearing up to host its next Which MBA? online fair in early February. Registration for this free event, which will take place February 6-7, 2012, is now open.
The Economist’s Which MBA online fair series is designed to connect prospective MBA applicants with officials from dozens of business schools to learn more about the individual school’s programs and application processes.
The February online fair will feature virtual booths for dozens of top business schools, Each booth will be complete with a reception area where prospective applicants can browse a range of general information about each school, a chat room where admissions officers, alumni, professors and current students will be available for both group and one-on-one discussions and a multimedia resource area where videos, photos and other materials will help bring the schools to life.
The two-day online event also will include several live webinars spread throughout both days of programming. These webinars, hosted by MBA admissions officers, deans, professors and Economist editors, will give prospective applicants an inside glimpse into the schools’ specific programs and MBA experience. Participants will have an opportunity to pose questions to be answered directly by the webinar hosts.
Among the schools that have already signed up to take part in the February Which MBA? online fair are the University of Virginia’s Darden School of Business, TiasNimbas Business School, University of Miami School of Business Administration, Nottingham University Business School and the University of New South Wales – AGSM.
