Hult Reviews by Aleksandar Penchev

Student Perspective Aleksandar Penchev, Bulgarian One-Year MBA, 2013,
Shanghai Pre Hult: Senior Engineer, EA ESMIS (Government/Non-Profit/Education)
I wish any prospective Hult student the best of luck with their application: remember that Hult is the future, so be part of it!
WHY HULT
Hult offers unparalleled international exposure. I wanted to study for an MBA degree but at the same time gain as much international experience as possible. I was attracted to Hult's diverse choice of locations. My first choice was, of course, the Shanghai campus. During my previous visit to Shanghai, I found that I had a strong emotional connection with Chinese and Asian culture, so I wanted to come back to explore and learn more.
MY LIFE AT HULT
If I had to use one word to describe Hult's atmosphere, it would be international. The faculty members are very open-minded and professional, always ready to respond the students' problems.
I arrived in Shanghai on a Saturday evening; just after I had checked into the dorm, I was with my suitcases waiting for the elevator, when I saw several young people chatting in the lobby. Of course they turned out to be Hult students, and we got chatting. They were going on a pub crawl in Shanghai, and invited me to join. So, by my second hour in the city, I had already got to know most of my classmates and was going out to experience Shanghai's nightlife. It was a really positive start to my life at Hult.
A GLOBAL HULT EXPERIENCE
The Global Campus Rotation offers the unique possibility to earn a one-year MBA and, at the same time have the opportunity to rotate to seven locations on four continents. Such exposure to different cultures and business environments is essential for any successful manager or entrepreneur today.
MY CAREER
After graduating I plan to embark on some business activities; I'll keep you updated! I wish any prospective Hult student the best of luck with their application: remember that Hult is the future, so be part of it!

Hult Reviews by - Tatiana Ufimtceva, MBA, 2014

Russian One-Year MBA, 2014,

Boston Pre-Hult: Sales Development Head, Home Credit and Finance Bank (Financial Services)
I feel the atmosphere of understanding and support at Hult. We help each other to develop, to become better professionals and people.

WHY HULT

An MBA at Hult equals a truly in-depth international experience in just one year. That's exactly what I was looking for. In the last ten years of my life alone I have travelled to 43 countries, but the first four months at Hult gave me much more. I got to know people from all over the world, 50 different nationalities, with whom you live through one of the most dynamic, rich, knowledge-filled, and experience-intensive periods of your life. The possibility to study in three of the six campuses and rotation centers in one year gives you the opportunity to dip into business and cultural environments of different countries, or even continents. It opens so many doors for you, doors all around the globe.

MY LIFE AT HULT

I feel the atmosphere of understanding and support at Hult. Everyone has this respect and curiosity for all the cultural and personal differences between us. We help each other to develop, to become better professionals and better people. It's just amazing to observe this transformation in people: someone who was calm and shy became a great speaker; another classmate who preferred to play alone became a great team player. This environment encourages everyone to strive for excellence.
The most memorable times for me have been celebrating birthdays with Hult friends from all over the world. When everyone sings happy birthday in dozens of different languages, it becomes an unforgettable moment.
The most inspiring professor for me is Mike Grandinetti. He creates a class atmosphere that nurtures extremely interesting and developing discussions. It helps us all to see the various points of view, in terms of different cultural and professional backgrounds, and to dig deep into how businesses work on the global scale.
I have seen considerable improvements in the standards of students' work through the weeks and months of teaching. The biggest visible transformation for most of students happened during the Management Communication course. The gap between first team presentations and final team presentations was incredible. In just three weeks the quality of speeches, slides, and speakers by themselves increased dramatically. I watched twelve presentations in one breath, marveling at the emerging talents on display at Hult.

The advantage of studying in Boston is that it's full of different on- and off-campus events, such as career fairs, workshops, and so forth. It is thus a city with the human capital to create a great network and gives you a lot of opportunities to find your dream job. Because of that I feel that I am edging closer and closer to my post-graduation objectives.

A GLOBAL HULT EXPERIENCE

My goal after graduation is to continue my international experience at a workplace in the finance sector. One of the best places for that is New York City. It's where people from all over the globe build their dream lives. It's one of the world's financial capitals, where you can find the head offices of the biggest financial companies. To achieve my goal, I will therefore rotate to New York.

Furthermore, I will definitely use the opportunity to study each year for two weeks at any of the Hult locations after graduation, which alumni can do for free. I think this program is a great advantage of Hult!

MY CAREER

I have more than eight years of banking experience in Russia. My goal is to continue building my banking career on a global scale. To achieve this I was looking for an international experience in my professional life. The best decision I made was starting on this path with Hult, one of the world's most international business schools. Here I have created an extensive network of people of 50 different nationalities for myself. Hult's professional faculty helps me to shape and improve my knowledge and skills all the time. The global rotation will help me to dip into the business environment of one of the financial capitals of the world, New York, where I will eventually find my dream job.

Hult Review and Technology-The changing Modern B School

Way back to 1960–70, students used to calculate by hands, only source of additional information was library, education was confined within the national boundary and it was almost impossible to get the knowledge about what is happening in the outside world except newspapers and educational journals published monthly or yearly by the research institutions.
 The unprecedented development of information technology has changed this scenario completely. Today, it is the e-library the students go for the information by clicking their mouse, the calculations are being done by the hi-tech calculators and the most updated information in any discipline is available within few seconds through internet. Social networking and various instant messaging services, at almost zero cost, has turned the entire education sector into a global village erasing the national boundaries in between the countries and most important part is that there students can share their reviews from Hult Review
Apart from the easily accessible resource and information, the technology has brought a significant change in the learning process and the change is being introduced continuously. Before the development of state of the art information and communication technology, education was classroom based and was face to face interaction in between the teachers and the students. The online education system has brought about a revolutionary change in the way of imparting education. Lots of top notch educational institutions all over the world is now launching the online courses which could be accessed by the students of any country. The technology is continuously being improved to make the on line education system more interactive and student oriented so that anyone willing to join the courses can get the best possible education rather than only a handful of students in the class room.
In recent years it has been found that the applications for online MBA courses have been increased significantly. According to Simon Nelson, the level of interaction and collaborative engagement is bringing a revolution in education with the help of on line MBA courses which could not have been imagined even few years ago. Top ranking B-schools are trying to make the full use of the technology to modernise their education system and the business schools like Hult International Business School, INSEAD, IE Business School and Warwick Business School of Europe are already conducting their on line MBA programmers along with regular full time course with considerable success. Harvard Business schools and MIT are experimenting with the Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCS) whereas the Wharton school has placed 10% of their MBA courses on online. The most important fact about incorporating technology in imparting MBA education by the top ranked B schools is that the schools could teach the MBA courses to a vast pool of students from different countries and different time zones which truly reflect the globalisation of education.
The distance in between the students and the courses being offered by various institutes all over the world has virtually been abolished because of the introduction of the online MBA and other professional courses which has significantly contributed to the development of the global Human resources. But online course is only one aspect of the use of technology to modernise the global education system. The other aspect is the use of technology in the betterment of course offerings. Almost all the top ranked B-schools are adopting the high definition audio visual system to impart education to their students. The course materials are being provided online and the students are being allowed to get continuous on line support from their professors as and when required. The effect is that the traditional fixed time class room teaching has virtually been transformed into a 24 X 7 hour teaching as per the requirement of the students.

The use of the state of the art communication and information technology is being made imperative in the B-schools, so as to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the teaching as well as learning process and to make the students well aware of the use of modern technology to communicate, to research and to make their decisions when they are applying their theoretical knowledge in the practical field. In fact the technology has become a necessity in the today’s working life and the learning of how to use the modern technology in implementing their knowledge in practical field has become key to the professional success.

Hult Review from Wendy Tan about One year MBA

WHY HULT

Hult was a  Right  choice for me , I chose Hult because of their unique Master’s Program in “One-year-MBA” and best part is that Hult alumni come from all over the world and  anyone can view feedback of Hult through Hult Review .

MY LIFE AT HULT

The diversity of my classmates in Hult was incredible.  And of course, I value the 1-year intensive MBA, which not only saves time, but also trains you to manage your time, work, and still enjoy the whole experience. The MBA has helped me land myself in a global role and progress upwards in my career within Citi . 

 I believe in learning as if you were to live forever and make the best of every day. Taking the break from my career was the best decision I made in my life to learn from the worldwide lifetime network friends I have made in Hult. These friendships are the most precious that I have gained here, given that all our family members are miles far away from us. .  Apart  from  that  I  have  gone  through  some  of  the  Hult Reviews,  students  share  about their  Hult  experience  and  I  found  them  helpful   to  make  the  right  choice.


A GLOBAL HULT EXPERIENCE

 The negotiations with the multi-cultural teams in Hult with our diverse classmates during teamwork and projects has helped me in my role, given that there are a lot of negotiations involved in my work Before I went to Hult I had no friends outside of my region and now I can say that I have friends all over the world.

 So I want to say that be truthful, make friends, have a sense of hum our, follow your heart’s desires, and be yourself .Never say never, you never know what’s going to happen next. One door that opens now could potentially lead to another one that might be what you want

MY CAREER

I am grateful to HULT and my fellow students for adding a new dimension to my life and giving me so much inner joy. It’s great to know that now we have friends all over the world. The global network keeps us either just a phone call or email away to find out the development in the country, or even just to have a place to bunk when we visit the destination!

A Hult Review by Bharat C. Pereira, Indian One-Year MBA, 2013, Boston

Pre Hult: Manager, Field Maintenance, Zuari Holdings Ltd (Manufacturing)

Unlike other 'traditional' schools, the Hult community is close-knit, and yet surprisingly diverse.
Hult offers a niche and stand-out MBA program. Hult's philosophy of practical business education, case- study approach, action-learning concept, course duration, and choice of global locations are truly in keeping with the practical realities of global business. The course design is also very student centered.

Unlike other "traditional" schools, the Hult community is close-knit, and yet surprisingly diverse. The atmosphere is just electric; you can feel the energy in the air. The classroom is such an amazing amalgamation of cultures, styles, and professional experience. From amateur to seasoned professionals, you can never underestimate the accomplishments or sheer professional or academic quality of the classmates sitting next to you.

My Hult Reviews - The quality of the discussions and intelligent debates are facilitated by the able teaching faculty, which leaves you with the sense of being enriched by every class. I find they all not only teach, but also mentor so well, rendering us aware that they have seen the real cut-throat competition and have knowledge of inside business practices.

Hult's educational philosophy encourages teamwork and forces you to stay one step ahead of the game. We spend time in our teams not only in discussions and debate but also having fun and exploring the city.Content currently not available.

Post MBA, I intend to change my career track. Part of the reason I chose Hult is due to the flexibility the course is designed to instil in students. My long-standing ambition is to be at the helm of public and policy planning in non-profit organizations, providing support to all stakeholders and utilizing my skills in a way that fosters a collaborative environment. The curriculum and emphasis on rigorous teamwork at Hult will definitely help me understand new dimensions and dynamics of sustainable economic and social development.

Hult Review was a natural choice for me, considering it is the world's most international business school




WHY HULT

Hult was a natural choice for me, considering it is the world's most international business school and has maintained a top position in the world rankings .I decided to do an MBA because I believe that it is the best way to develop and strengthen my skills in order to boost my career.  Although I have gone through some of the Hult Reviews  students share about their hult experience and I found them helpful to make the right choice.

MY LIFE AT HULT

The atmosphere on campus is usually very lively, friendly, and welcoming. Even though the MBA classroom tends to bring out student's competitive spirit, we can really count on one another's support to achieve our shared objectives.

I recently  became  the  VP  of Hult  Entrepreneurship  Club. The  main  reason  for  this  was  to  share  and  develop my  expertise  in  business  development  and gain an insight into how entrepreneurship works in China. I am in charge of the administration for the club and aim to provide professional administrative support and ensure ffective the organization of presentations, guest speaker events, and so forth.

I found the Corporate Social Responsibility course particularly beneficial. At the beginning of the class, I was a little apprehensive about this subject. However, the way that Professor Lawrence led the class, her ability to involve students, and the way she organized the teaching of the content, were all very impressive. Her class forced me, and I believe the rest of the cohort, to really consider CSR as an essential part of an organization instead of just another marketing tool.

A GLOBAL HULT EXPERIENCE

Hult's student body is made ffrent up of nationalities so many di and people from diverse backgrounds, and everyone is very respectful   fferences towards and cultural divergent point of views and best part is that any one can view feedback of Hult through Hult Review

In order to help us develop our professional network and understanding of business practices in China, Hult organizes lots of presentations, lectures, and networking events with professionals based in Shanghai. These events are of real value to our understanding of the Asian market.

MY CAREER

I was working as an IT Channel Manager with an American Fortune 500 company based in Dubai when I came to the conclusion that I had reached a ceiling in my current position, and was looking for increased responsibility in a more challenging environment.

I would like to be based in Shanghai and become Regional Vice President for an international IT company to support their growth in Asia. Hult has given me a broad understanding of business and management issues, such as cultural understanding and decisions driven by performances that will

assist me in my role as Regional VP. In particular, I look forward to enhancing my expertise through courses such as Strategic Management and Cross-Cultural Management. In addition I would like to explore electives open to Hult alumni such as Asian Economic Integration and Business Strategies.

Hult Reviews by alumni - Natalia Fernandez Cortes



Natalia Fernandez Cortes, Colombian
One-Year MBA, 2013, London
Pre Hult: Research Associate, Colombian Private Council on
Competitiveness (Government/Non-Profit/Education)
I view the MBA from Hult as the Rosetta Stone that I require to achieve my goals.

WHY HULT

Several factors made me single out Hult. First its global reach: different global locations, including London and Shanghai, two cities that I had always wanted to explore, with plans to keep expanding.
Second, Hult's practical education vision and model. I had always thought of an MBA as being more applicable than academic, and I felt the action learning model at Hult provided the clearest path to a practical insight into management. 

Third, the dedication offered by Hult's staff throughout the application and recruitment process. Through my Admissions Officer (who was a great guide!) I developed direct empathy with Hult.
Fourth, since my background is in social and public policy, I felt the Global Case Challenge (now known as the Hult Prize) would offer a great balance between a business pro-profit management focus and socially responsible outcomes. This was particularly important and appealing to me.
Fifth, Hult's steady climb up the academic rankings—the school has consistently built its reputation by effectively utilizing its marketing and academic resources.

LIFE AT HULT

Hult is a friendly environment. I find there is a spirit of cooperation and desire to all learn from each other at Hult, rather than an individualised or competitive atmosphere.
In the classroom, I am enjoying many of my modules, even those I would never have expected to! For example, I thought I didn't have the "heart" for Finance, but Professor Soufani teaches the subject in a very applied and pragmatic way, like when he explained the financial crisis comprehensively in one session. 

My extra-curricular activities include my membership of the Women's Business Club and soon the Consulting Club, which I think will prove relevant for my next steps. I am organising a Latin American Business Conference. I am also involved in sports at Hult through the Tennis Club. 
On and off campus I have an active and varied social life with classmates I have befriended from my course, especially my MBA Module A team! We have established a cultural exchange tradition of gathering to try food from each of our countries together.

Hult Reviews & Global Experiences

 I chose the Shanghai campus because I am convinced that understanding China will give me a great competitive advantage both now and in future. I considered full immersion, living and experiencing the culture, the customs, the way they do business, and a little of the language, essential to this end.
I am confident opportunities like the Action Project at a leading firm in Shanghai will open endless doors.I consider London a cultural city that has a lot to offer both personally and professionally. It is home to most of the large firms I have always dreamed to work for, as well as small and medium-sized firms with lots of potential to grow.

MY CAREER

I will explore the world of management consulting after graduation, as I think this field of work will best exploit my current skills. Eventually I plan to start my own business and become a high-level government advisor, and I view the MBA from Hult as the Rosetta Stone I require to achieve my goals.

Meet Hult Reviews for sure quality education.

Alumni Perspective Diego Mendes – Hult Reviews



Brazilian-American One-Year MBA, 2009

Boston User Experience Designer, Chegg (Consumer Goods)

I was attracted by Hult's focus on innovation. While other schools talk about innovation, Hult does it.


I was attracted by Hult's focus on innovation. While other schools talk about innovation, Hult does it. It has turned the MBA education market upside down by designing one of the most fresh and innovative MBA programs around. It took the Social Entrepreneurship world by storm by creating the Hult Prize, partnering with the Clinton Foundation and awarding USD1 million to make the world a better place. Hult students benefit from some of the most innovative and effective business education available in the world today. 

Hult's MBA was also affordable; a one-year intensive MBA cut my expenses by half. Being taught by real business practitioners instead of tenured track professors was also really appealing. I wanted to learn about real world situations and having professors who were active in the business world and not just academia was very important for me.

MY LIFE AT HULT

The atmosphere at Hult is competitive, yet collaborative. The campus features very bright students and very challenging professors that are all willing to help you grow.
Professor Julie Yao Cooper was one of the first professors I met at Hult. Knowing about her background working for prestigious consulting groups and Harvard Business School, I was very excited to take her class, if somewhat intimidated. However, she made a real effort to connect with her students, and she became a lifelong mentor to me. My Innovation Management course with Prof. Patel was the most rewarding. The course really helped me establish a framework, which I currently use when designing new products in Silicon Valley. I always brush up on my notes, slides, and case studies from that class. I feel that everyone who wants to work in an innovative company should take the Innovation Management class. 

I was one of the leaders of the Hult Innovation Consulting Club and the Latin American Club.
Creating a business plan for Dubai World which focused on innovation and growth opportunities, and which my teammates and I presented to the executive team was the experience of a lifetime. The business context in the Middle East was completely different from my Latin American roots and my home campus in Boston, and yet Dubai World is a global company, hence my team's international experience was extremely important in crafting our plan.

A GLOBAL HULT EXPERIENCE

Hult has not only one of the most international student bodies, but also one of the most diverse faculty teams of any business school in the world.
I started studying in Boston, rotated to Shanghai, and then finished up in Dubai. The amount I grew both personally and professionally was incredible. Being able to complete research projects and internships on other continents, understand different business settings, and learn how to respond to new business challenges I had never seen before was only possible as part of Global Campus Rotation. I would never have been able to learn as much as I did if I had only studied in one country. Today I can fly to any continent and meet up with contacts. All it takes is to grab my phone, look up the city I am traveling to on the Hult app, and invite people to grab a coffee or dinner.

MY CAREER

I am in a much better place in my career than I was before the MBA. I use the case study mentality in tackling real-world business problems every day when I design products in the midst of uncertain markets. I constantly seek knowledge from Hult friends in different industries and regions of the world. Whether it is a question about different tax laws in specific countries, potential connections for business development, or opinions about a new product I am working on, the Hult Alumni Network is always responsive and proactive. I love being a Hultian!

What kind of Career support Hult gives? Student Perspectives & Reviews

James Whittaker, Australian
One-Year MBA, 2013, Boston
Pre Hult: Practice Development Manager, Whittaker Macnaught (Financial Services)
The Hult MBA will enable me to access international markets with greater ease.


I was most attracted by the fact that Hult appeared to be very much an up-and-coming university and I have always been interested in studying for an MBA in the U.S. Some of the other schools I considered did not seem to embrace the shift toward technology, innovation, and an international focus, but I could tell almost immediately that Hult understood it perfectly. The diverse student body, international locations, networking opportunities, and quality of the teaching faculty all added to the appeal.

MY LIFE AT HULT

The Boston campus is an inspiring atmosphere of learning where individuals and small groups meet up throughout the day and night to discuss case studies and class-related assignments as well as their own aspirations and ambitions for the future.

The Hult classroom, while challenging at times, finds people from all over the world offering their perspectives and opinions on a myriad of topics. There's also a strong emphasis on enthusiasm, humor, and having a good time, which helps to revive everyone, especially during times of stress.

I am President of the 2013 Hult Entrepreneurship & Innovation Club. Outside of Hult I have participated in numerous networking events and information sessions throughout Boston, with a particular focus on entrepreneurship and mobile app development. This has enabled me to meet a lot of influential people in the community as well as the brains behind some brilliant start-ups. As for Boston life more generally, I am a member of Crossfit Boston, I've also seen the Red Sox twice and the Patriots once and would highly recommend their games for a fun outing to absorb some of the local culture.
I can't wait to get stuck into the yearly electives that I will be able to take advantage of as a Hult alum.

A GLOBAL HULT EXPERIENCE

Hult's Global Campus Rotation is a big appeal for me. I intend to rotate to Shanghai before returning to Boston for the final module and graduation. With China's growing influence, being able to spend two months in the country's business hub is a tremendous opportunity that will provide me with a unique theoretical and practical experience.

My plan is to start my own business as soon as possible. The MBA has armed me with additional weapons to add to my entrepreneurial arsenal, and I'm confident that my first leap as a business owner won't be a spectacular failure. In fact, with the right planning, I'm confident of my success.

All the subjects so far have contributed to my knowledge of the business world. The networking
Opportunities at Hult should not be understated: the dozens of contacts I developed with people outside of Hult who have given me guidance and insights which have constantly refined my business ideas. The Hult MBA will enable me to access international markets with greater ease.

Hult Alumni Reviews For MBA by Cynthia Kaplan

Cynthia Kaplan, American
One-Year MBA, 1992, Boston
Partner, Executive Search and Talent Development, Delta Top Talent
(Professional Services)

Hult teaches you to be responsive and flexible in a really dynamic world.

When I embarked upon my MBA, I was looking for something to tie my international career together and launch me in a new direction and it certainly did that for me—in a very intense one-year program. My career has never been planned but has been about taking advantage of the opportunities that have come up along the way. Hult teaches you to be responsive and to be flexible in a really dynamic world.


I think that the MBA program is flexible enough to really let your strengths shine and helps you to learn to work with people with other strengths, experience, and cultural backgrounds.  I’m still in touch with some of my classmates. One fourth of July I invited my class up to my parents’ house in Massachusetts and probably fourteen to fifteen people came up and we had a BBQ and they experienced a real American 4th of July, so that was very memorable—being able to share my hometown with my fellow students.

A GLOBAL HULT EXPERIENCE

My time at Hult (then the Arthur D. Little School of Management) exposed me to different global perspectives. Hult gave me the opportunity to meet other mid-level career managers offering different perspectives. It was the whole multicultural experience that I really enjoyed and really benefited from and still do. Later in my career I was asked to head a branch of a Japanese inter-cultural consulting firm. We gave cross-cultural training courses to Japanese companies in Mexico and by that time I had then acquired three cultures. My experience at Hult made me much more culturally aware and able to deal with cross-cultural issues as they came up in my career.

MY CAREER


Former students sometimes get in touch to say that they have graduated from Hult and they’re coming back to Mexico. Depending on their level of experience, I’m well-placed to recommend alumni for positions at my firm or its sister company. I’m happy to offer them a little coaching, or refer their résumé to my colleagues in the headhunting industry. Over the course of the years I’ve probably helped about eight to ten alumni members and I hope to get more involved in the Alumni Association in the future. We’re living in an age where everything is interlinked. I would say alums should really pursue their dreams and take advantage of their alumni network, especially since Hult has grown so large now.

Hult Alumni Perspectives and Reviews

Paul Deckard, American
Master Degree Programs - Master of International Business, 2013,
Boston
Pre Hult: Production Manager, Michigan State Opera Theater
(Media/Entertainment)

At Hult you have a supportive and engaging group of colleagues to collaborate with and spur you on inside and outside of the classroom.

WHY HULT

What first attracted me to Hult and its Master program was the learning environment that school offers students. The environment is by far the most cross-cultural and exciting that I have encountered in any academic setting, with over 135 nationalities represented. You truly get the most international experience available, even without rotating to another campus.

MY LIFE AT HULT

·         Unparalleled
·         Exciting
·         Engaging

That is how I would describe the atmosphere on campus and in the classroom. Hult is a very rewarding place to be, as every day you are challenged by your professors to engage in critical thinking and take your studies to a new level. Most importantly, at Hult you have a supportive and engaging group of colleagues to collaborate with and spur you on inside and outside of the classroom. Our courses enable us to apply the concepts we've learned to solve more challenging problems. Professors are more than willing to help students achieve results, but expect us to connect the dots by ourselves.

For me one of the most rewarding courses so far has been Global Management. The course emphasizes the application of theory; we look at real companies and analyze their current situation, and then decide what that company should do and the implications of that decision. You walk away with a greater understanding of business practices and how best to solve the multifaceted challenges that we as future managers will encounter. I really enjoyed the time spent getting to know my classmates outside of class through the Hult Prize; they're from all over the world and each and every one has a different story. It's so rewarding to learn from one other about different cultures.

HULT EXPERIENCES

I am planning to stay at the Boston campus to increase my network and intern with companies in the area. That said, I will have gained the ability through my Hult course to be an efficient team player in a diverse range of environments.

After graduation I plan to stay in the entertainment industry and obtain a management position that will enable me to apply the tools and knowledge I have gained at Hult. I am focusing on finance and am planning to incorporate this as a main function of my post Master career. A Master degree from Hult will give me a competitive edge over many other candidates in the job market, the knowledge and tools I will take away from Hult will benefit me greatly as a business practitioner and as a person.

Hult Reviews for MBA Alumni Perspective





Alumni Perspective
Priya Sultan, American
Master Degree Programs - Master of International Relations, 2011,
London
Regional Director Europe, Hult Prize, (Government/Non-Profit/Education)

I was drawn to Hult because of the one-year duration of a program that provided considerable international exposure.

WHY HULT

I was drawn to Hult because of the one-year duration of a program that provided considerable international exposure—the option to rotate campuses was very attractive. Hult offered learning from professors who are leaders in their field. I chose the London campus as I consider London a major international hub offering unparalleled networking opportunities. Remaining based in an English speaking country was also an important factor for me.

MY LIFE AT HULT

The atmosphere on campus was always fun and exciting. There were so many students to meet, so the
environment was quite open with people looking to interact with each other.

In the classroom, due to the varied backgrounds of students there was always very interesting class
discussions. The professors were often very inspirational, for instance Professor Mark Spokes is one of the best professors I have ever had. He's extremely knowledgeable about his subjects and forces you to think critically. He was part of the inspiration for my thesis and really taught how to create an unbeatable argument. I was a Hult Student Association (HSA), participated in the Hult Prize (our team won the Hult London internal competition), was voted as a graduation speaker, and joined the Consulting Club for on-campus activities. Off campus I joined a running and crew club. I also joined a society which was focused on the liberal arts.

Some of the most memorable times at Hult London were the events which were planned for us by
Student Services (i.e.: masquerade ball, Halloween party, nights out, etc). It's London, so a pint after
class was a pretty common occurrence. We also hung out in amazing parts of London—Camden Town,
Angel, Shoreditch, London Bridge, Primrose Hill, Marylebone, etc.

A GLOBAL HULT EXPERIENCE

The people you meet at Hult are from all over the globe, so you literally build a global network through your peers at Hult. My network grew tremendously while living in London. I don't think I would have had exposure to the caliber of people that I did living in any other country. The leaders of industries globally base themselves in London, so why not be with the best of the best? I am a fairly active alumnus, I typically attend alumni events in whichever country I am based in.

MY CAREER
Many of your peers go on to do pretty amazing things after their time at Hult. I have remained involved by working for the Hult Prize!
