“As a co-leader of the Ghana Global Study Tour, I know first-hand how UWB’s MBA Global Study Tour Program provides students the unique opportunity to learn and experience new cultures and global business practices beyond the classroom.” ADE AJAYI


PROGRAM MANAGER, MICROSOFT LEADERSHIP MBA CLASS OF 2011


CO-LEADER, MBA STUDY TOUR TO GHANA


Students participating in our Global Business Study Tours learn how to do business in the global marketplace. Our MBA students visit local industries, meet with senior business and community leaders, and learn how international executives approach challenges and manage business initiatives across world markets. Students on the tours also gain an exposure to foreign cultures, customs, cuisines and arts through carefully chosen lectures and activities.


Learning from the Leaders


The UW Bothell MBA Programs emphasize experiential learning through interactions with business leaders and entrepreneurs. Corporate executives share real-life insights, coach and mentor our students to advance in their careers. As a result of the interactions inside and outside class, students are able to view the world through the lens of a business leader, learn from the experiences of businesses and create a practical path to success.
