The Curriculum

Our curriculum is structured to give you a strong foundation in international business. Project work reinforces practical skills and the real-life application of classroom learning.

Hults Action Projects

By applying classroom learning to actual business situations, you’ll gain a powerful education that demonstrates how business is conducted. Earn academic credit, gain professional skills, and get invaluable exposure to the world on an Action Project.

An integral part of Hult’s LEAP curriculum

Action Projects let you “learn by doing.”  During each year of your studies, you will participate in an Action Project which will utilize the theory and skills learned in the classroom. Action Projects will be as closely matched to your academic interests and studies as possible and are credit-bearing courses that count toward graduation. An invaluable way to see how business is conducted on an international scale, Hult’s Action Projects are like working towards a mini-MBA.

Participate in an Action Project abroad

Ensuring that you can apply your knowledge is central to our pedagogical philosophy. Hult’s curriculum has been designed so that you gain exposure to the world outside of the classroom through Action Projects. Each year, starting in Year One through to Year Four, your projects will become progressively more involved. Year One and Year Two Action Projects take place in London. During Years Three and Four, you may pursue your Action Projects at one of Hult’s global campuses.
