Program Information

Meet the challenges of the global marketplace

A strong understanding of how the world is interconnected through finance, marketing, operations, economics, and strategy gives you an immediate head start to launch your careers. Hult’s Master of International Business (MIB) degree helps students acquire practical business knowledge with a focus on international and cross-cultural understanding of the marketplace. This degree is particularly well suited to recent university graduates (both business and non-business majors) who do not have extensive work experience.

Hult’s Global Campus Rotation Program

Our business school has been ranked #1 in International Experience and #3 in International Business in the Financial Times (2012). We firmly believe that an international perspective is crucial to understanding today’s business issues. Hult’s Global Campus Rotation Program allows students to gain critical insights into the world’s key economies and firsthand international business experience. You can pursue your MIB in Boston, San Francisco, London, Dubai, or Shanghai. During the elective module, you can choose to remain at your home campus or study at a different Hult campus, including New York or São Paulo.

Curriculum combines hard skills with lessons in decision making and strategy

Hult’s MIB curriculum delivers an understanding of today’s global marketplace. Initially, students focus on learning hard skills in international finance, marketing, operations, and strategy. Subsequently, through fieldwork and hands-on projects, you will also gain the analytical, problem solving, and critical thinking skills necessary to make decisions in a rapidly evolving, cross-cultural world.

Action Projects give you great exposure

Our Action Projects give you exposure to real-world companies as you work in small teams coached by a mentor to solve a business problem or think of growth channelsfor leading companies. Recognizing that innovation is key to sustaining a competitive advantage and driving growth, Hult’s Action Projects ensure that you have the chance to apply what you have learned in a true business setting, preparing you fully for your future careers. Together, under the guidance of a faculty advisor, students will help a business develop bold and bankable ideas for future growth. The team will aim to develop insights about the particular industry and business, identify breakthrough ideas, develop a business concept, and build an implementation plan to present to senior executives and CEOs.

Career opportunities

Hult Career Services has created a comprehensive program to prepare students to conduct an intensive and successful job search. To ensure each student’s job search process is both efficient and strategic, we provide exposure to industries, companies, and professionals relevant to post-Master career objectives. Hult’s Career Services team works closely with students in their job search, arranging recruiting fairs, campus networking opportunities, and internship placements. Major multinationals, like PepsiCo, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Ernst & Young, Deutsche Bank, and Accenture, actively recruit graduates who have strong business skills and possess international perspectives.
