We are redefining the business graduate.\r\nA fundamental step is to get the culture right: People who question the status quo, project confidence without attitude, learn as students always, and think beyond themselves. We add the right core, elective, and experiential curriculum to deliver leaders who create the future.\r\nOur archetype is the Innovative Leader, which has four parts: They build enterprises powered in every business area by new ideas put intoaction.\r\nLeaders of this kind define what's next, for our markets and for our societies. The Haas School is uniquely positioned to deliver such leaders because we have a solid foundation of place, people, and culture and the vision to make far-reaching strategic changes.\r\nThe center of this is our curriculum and set of organizing themes that develop and deliver innovative leaders.
The Berkeley-Haas MBA program is about leadership, fresh thinking, positive impact, and an incredibly talented, diverse, collaborative community--one that forms an invaluable, lifelong network. The program goes beyond the standard business school curriculum to develop students as innovative leaders. Students will acquire leadership skills and qualities that enable them to drive growth by putting new ideas into action in every corner and every function of their organization, and to do so responsibly. Graduates will define what's next--for our markets, and for our societies. Anchored in a rigorous general management curriculum, the program gives students the breadth and depth of knowledge to be a leader in any type of organization. By leveraging the innovative energy that's ever present in Berkeley-Haas culture and in the business ecosystem of the San Francisco Bay Area, the program teaches students how to seize opportunities, challenge conventional wisdom, and act creatively.
