Leading Through Innovation - The Berkeley MBA - University of ...

From the Dean
The Haas School of Business is the kind of place that
sets minds alight, and sets lives on a brighter course.
That is certainly true of the Berkeley Full-time MBA
Program. I encourage you to learn more about its
benefits for your future career success.
You will soon discover that the Haas School is about the
independent and innovative thinking that differentiates
UC Berkeley from others. Through the path-breaking
research and teaching of our faculty, and the pioneering activities and
leadership of our students and alumni, Haas plays an integral role in
creating world-changing innovations. Moreover, our school expects and
achieves excellence in its pursuit of new ideas and best practices.
As a relatively small program, the Full-time Berkeley MBA is about
community, and the kind of esprit de corps that this fosters. As
a Berkeley MBA student, you will become an essential part of a
community that values diversity. Our students are particularly well
oriented to adding value in team-based, collaborative ways, with a
community spirit that is so much a part of the Berkeley tradition. And
finally, our students possess confidence without attitude – a real asset
for success.
Haas is also a business school with large and growing momentum.
We are at a strategic crossroads and have set a course to build upon
our reputation for quality and leadership among the world’s very top
business schools. For example, we are significantly expanding the
size of our faculty and planning for a new, additional building. This
is a school that is proactively increasing its reach and its excellence
– striving to make a greater, positive impact on business and society. It
is an exciting time to be here.
Please visit us to meet the faculty, students, and staff, and sample what
we have to offer.
With Kind Regards,
Tom Campbell
