Adventure in Education

Duke University Fuqua School of Business
Most people go through life avoiding emotion-laden experiences; they hope
nothing extraordinary will happen in the course of the day.

Applications for International Exchange are now being accepted. Between now and mid July our students have the opportunity to pay Otago MBA tuition and take three courses from one of our world-class international exchange partners during (in most cases) the first semester, 2015.  For many of our students this may represent a once in a lifetime academic adventure, with access to a phenomenal educational experience.

Exchange Partners:

National University of Singapore
Mahidol University College of Mgmt (Bangkok)


Kenan-Flagler Business School (USA)
Duke Fuqua School of Business (USA)
Kelly School of Business (USA)
Schulich School of Business (Canada)
University of Economics (Prague, Czech Republic)
Copenhagen Business School (Denmark)
Cologne Business School (Germany)
Grenoble Ecole de Management (France)
Aston Business School (UK)
Rotterdam School of Management (Netherlands)
Universitat St Gallen (Switzerland)
Vienna School of Business (Austria)

I've entitled this post, "Adventure in Education." Why? It's interesting: the memories we carry for a lifetime, those that track our path through life, are those that are emotional-laden.The experiences informing these memories infrequently happen; they take us out of the routine of life; and they come with a cost (e.g., dollars, time or anxiety). They also inform us about who we are as individuals. So, imagine the potential value in life experiences and career opportunities (strength of your resume): an MBA from University of Otago, New Zealand and international exchange from another leading school in the USA, France, Denmark....

Shouldn't an MBA degree come with experiences that excite or scare us, rather than
just sitting in a classroom or earning a piece of paper?

Note: Feedback from our students and exchange students coming to the Otago MBA describe our programme as rigorous (or more) than elsewhere.
