Academic Experience
We challenge you to think differently.
The case method brings leadership to life. Students step into the shoes of case protagonists, real business leaders, and learn to make tough decisions as they are challenged by the diverse perspectives of classmates. Students then apply this learning in experiential field programs and independent studies to practice what it means to become a leader who makes a difference in the world.
Each of these learning platforms contribute to a truly global experience, from global cases and protagonists, to international classrooms and project-based experiences.
Students graduate from HBS not only with increased knowledge but, more importantly, with grounding and practice in how to make difficult decisions and what it means to assume leadership in a global environment.

Initiatives are research-fueled “communities of engagement” where faculty, students, and alumni connect with practitioners in the field to develop insights that drive impact. They provide powerful platforms to address complex, multi-dimensional topics that demand a new managerial mindset. HBS Initiatives cover a range of topics, from sectors of the economy to societal issues that businesses must address in an ever-changing global marketplace.
