The Hult Master's

Lab

AI Lab

Learn the tools, develop the judgment, and demonstrate your impact in an AI-driven world.

AI Built into Your Degree

At Hult, we build our curriculum to reflect the reality of the global workplace. And that means adapting in real time, so you’ll graduate with the skills for maximum career impact.

That's why, starting September 2026, we're introducing a new AI Lab series to our Master's in Management and Master's in Marketing programs.

Students who complete the AI Lab series will earn a Hult Certificate in Applied AI—graduating ready to manage, trust, audit, and intervene in autonomous systems operating in real business environments.

Welcome to a new workplace reality

AI has redefined the environment in which you will grow your career. With 88% of organizations now regularly using AI in at least one business function*, and adoption still accelerating, the workplace your degree prepares you for looks nothing like it did five years ago.

Tasks once requiring entire teams—from analysis and content creation to coding and planning—are being absorbed at unprecedented speed. The job market is fundamentally shifting, redefining roles and changing what skills employers expect from day one.

What is the Hult AI Lab?

The AI Lab is an intensive, hands-on component of your postgraduate degree. It is dedicated classroom time to build the kind of applied expertise that employers are struggling to find.

Working in collaborative, interdisciplinary teams, you'll tackle real business use cases that can be solved with AI-driven thinking. You will design, deploy, and supervise AI agents that take autonomous action in live environments, with real professional and operational consequences attached.

How it works

The AI Lab runs over several weeks during both the fall and spring terms and offers a space to learn, test, and experiment with the technology that is reshaping the world of work.

Whether AI is already part of how you work or you're stepping into it for the first time, you'll leave the lab with demonstrable, hands-on experience and the confidence to apply it strategically in any business context.

Learn from the experts

Led by Hult practitioner faculty and delivered in collaboration with business and AI industry partners, you will learn to harness AI for analysis, automation, content generation, and productivity.

Build real, AI-driven solutions

You will apply what you’ve learned to real-world business challenges, resulting in tangible outputs: AI-enabled apps, automated workflows, audience-intelligence reports, financial modeling templates, prompt libraries, and boardroom-ready pitch decks.

Get a certificate in Applied AI

You’ll graduate with a globally recognized master’s degree, a Hult Certificate in Applied AI and a portfolio of real projects that show employers exactly what you can do.  

Applied learning across disciplines

AI literacy is increasingly in demand across business functions. Through the practical challenges built into the AI Lab, you'll see the real-world application of AI across strategy, operations, marketing, and decision-making.

The irreplaceable value of critical, human thinking

As AI makes everyday task execution easier and information more accessible, the value of human judgment, creativity, and ethical reasoning has only increased.  

As part of your AI Lab experience, you will learn to rigorously question AI outputs and recognize the biases, hallucinations, and limitations inherent in the systems. You will apply critical thinking where context, ethics, and strategic insight are what separate a good leader from an exceptional one.
