Welcome to another edition of Clear Admit’s Trivia Tuesday column, in which we guide you through the maze of information out there to show you what differentiates the leading business schools from their peers. Today, we’re going to take a peek into the Clear Admit School Guide to NYU Stern and examine its Doing Business In… programs, one of many ways in which NYU students can gain international business experience:
“For students interested in gaining international exposure, Stern’s one- and two-week Doing Business In… (DBI) programs offer an appealing short-term alternative to spending an entire semester abroad. The programs usually travel to between four and six locations each semester; past destinations include Argentina, Australia, China, Hungary, Italy and India. DBI trips take place outside the normal academic calendar, usually between semesters or during Spring Break, making it easy for students to fit the program into their schedules at some point during the MBA.
“Admission is determined by lottery. Each DBI program includes one pre-trip class session, followed by four to ten full days of scheduled activities in the host country. Classes are taught by the faculty of the host university; these faculty members also award the final project or paper grades for the course. Successful completion of the course is worth 1.5 or 3 credits toward graduation and can be counted towards a specialization in Global Business.”
For more information on Stern’s many study-abroad programs, and for a wealth of other useful tidbits about NYU, be sure to take a look at the Clear Admit School Guide to NYU Stern. All 21 Clear Admit School Guides are available for immediate purchase and download on the Clear Admit shop.
