Columbia Business School will launch two on-campus event series this fall for prospective MBA applicants looking to learn more about what CBS has to offer. The first series – “Why an MBA?” – will feature a panel of CBS alumni and students sharing what led them to pursue either a full-time or executive MBA. The second “Spotlight On:” series will convene professors, alumni and current students to provide a view of CBS and its opportunities in several different areas of study. The events, which will take place on CBS’s Morningside Heights campus, are free to all, but RSVP is required.
Two “Why an MBA?” panels will be held as part of that series, each on Tuesday evenings at 6:30 p.m. in CBS’s Uris Hall. The first will be held on September 17th and the second on September 24th.
The “SpotlightOn:” series will include nine different panel events, scheduled on Thursday evenings at 6:30 p.m. from September 12th through October 24th, also in CBS’s Uris Hall. Areas of study included in the lineup are entrepreneurship, finance, healthcare, marketing, media, social enterprise, real estate, private equity and retail and luxury goods.
