MBA Global Network Weeks
We are the only business school in South Africa to be part of the 32-member Global Network for Advanced Management (GNAM) hosted by the Yale School of Management in the US. Global Network Weeks give our MBA students the opportunity to pursue intensive study at another network school, in a focused course that leverages the perspectives, programs, and faculty expertise of that school – tuition-free. Alongside their counterparts from elsewhere in the network, students attend classes, tour local businesses, and meet with experts focused on current business problems.
The MBA Global Network Weeks take place annually for a week in March and October. Our MBA students can apply to participate in any of the MBA Global Network Weeks offered at one of our 31 Global Network partner schools around the world. Each school offers a week focused on a specific topic designed to address the current challenges professionals may face in their respective fields. Topics on offer during previous MBA Global Network Weeks can be found here: https://globalnetwork.io/programs/network-weeks/previous
