top-ranked hult international business school arrives in dubai
 
Hult International Business School first to offer one-year US accredited MBA program from 2008 with elective study in Boston and Shanghai
 
Hult International Business School, a top ranked business school, announced today the launch of their U.S. accredited global MBA program, which will begin in 2008 in Dubai Academic City. Hult is the first international Business School to offer a one year MBA program to students across the Middle East.
 
Hult in Dubai offers a global business education with elective modules offered for study in Boston and Shanghai, and also very soon at their campus in London. MBA’s therefore will have the opportunity of exposure to four of the world’s major commercial, financial and trade centres.
 
The top-ranked business school will offer students the same curriculum at the innovative and fully-integrated campus in Dubai’s Academic City, as the Boston-based program.
 
The President of Hult International Business School, Dr. Stephen J. Hodges,  commented; “There are numerous benefits of a Hult MBA, and even more so with graduating in one of the fastest growing economies of the world – Dubai. A diverse number of businesses and industries including project management, financial service, media, healthcare, hospitality and IT are keen to recruit well-educated MBA graduates. So Dubai really is an excellent choice for a prospective student and creates a win-win situation for employers as well”.
 
The global component of the course differentiates Hult’s MBA program from existing programs elsewhere. “The world is now increasingly interconnected, with an integrated global economy emerging. Here at Hult we recognize the importance of giving our MBA students a truly global perspective as well as providing exciting career opportunities in the world's fastest growing economies," added Dr. Hodges.
 
As well as exposure to the practice of global management and the business school’s 40 years plus of expertise, students will benefit from the world-class teaching faculty comprising professors and lecturers from the U.S. and Europe. Graduates of the Hult MBA program have access to Hult’s global network of alumni and contacts, numbering some 2,300 across more than 120 countries. In addition, Hult provides students with career development counseling. 80% of students reenter employment within three months of graduation with an average salary of USD $82 thousand.
 
Hult’s website www.hult.edu offers students in Dubai an online application service and further information with regard to the scholarships which Hult offers. Details of opportunities for prospective students to meet with Hult faculty and staff can also be accessed online. Applications to Hult Dubai can also be made by calling 04 375 3086 or e-mailing admissions@hult.edu.
