Experience Stern | News & Events

Excerpt from Poets & Quants — "In his six years as dean, Sundaram raised $400 million, including the three largest scholarship gifts in NYU’s history; broken school MBA and undergraduate records for incoming class metrics and career outcomes; launched new programs like the Andre Koo Tech MBA, the Endless Frontier Labs, and the school’s first online programs, as well as the soon-to-launch joint MBA program with NYU-Abu Dhabi that will start in January 2025; and overseen the opening of other new Stern campuses, in Washington, D.C., London, and Shanghai."

Stern MBA students are getting a front row seat in the rapidly evolving ETA sector through a new Stern Solutions experiential learning project that was first launched in Fall 2023.

Excerpt from Financial Times -- "Rangarajan Sundaram, dean of New York University’s Stern School of Business, agrees that, in the postwar period, 'India was desperately poor'. Its elite, highly competitive Indian Institutes of Technology and Indian Institutes of Management 'created models, a middle class and educational aspiration' which then attracted him and his peers to the US. After an MBA from the Indian Institute of Management in Ahmedabad, he received a PhD from Cornell University in New York state."

Excerpt from Poets & Quants — “'What we want to do at Endless Frontier Labs is help seed the creation of many other Genentechs by bringing in these brilliant scientists with great technical ideas, and giving them business advice and connections to smart MBAs that are so essential to develop the commercial side of these technical ideas,' Hegde says."

Excerpt from Poets & Quants — "I was fortunate enough to be admitted into NYU Stern’s Andre Koo Technology and Entrepreneurship MBA cohort. The one-year MBA program’s focused curriculum, in the heart of New York City, provided the academic groundwork and practical experience crucial for my entrepreneurial journey. Equally valuable were my experienced classmates, who, despite juggling numerous commitments, remained an unwavering support system. In the midst of the NYU Entrepreneurs Challenge, some of my classmates offered invaluable feedback on our pitch deck, ultimately contributing to our victory on stage. Their dedication, even amidst busy schedules, demonstrated an unparalleled commitment to our shared success."

The NYU Stern community is powered by the challenge to not only embrace but to lead change. This guiding call to action sparks innovation across the School, and the Undergraduate College’s (UC) new capstone course for seniors is the latest case in point.

Our MBA, a collaboration between NYU Stern and NYU Abu Dhabi, is designed to attract the highest quality applicants from all over the world who share an interest and a desire to build their initial careers in the MENA region, a dynamic region experiencing exponential growth. Enrolled students will not only have the opportunity to earn a top-notch MBA in just one year, but also the chance to study in two world-class cities – Abu Dhabi (in the spring and the fall) and New York City (in the summer)."

Excerpt from BusinessBecause — "For full-time roles outside of the typical summer internship conversions, companies will continue to recruit more of their MBA hiring volume in 'real time' closer to graduation (as opposed to the more traditional timelines of hiring and making offers in the fall, well in advance of spring graduation).

"The 'real-time' hiring affords companies more flexibility to hire for specific skills into roles that are immediately available and gives MBA graduates, especially in more non-traditional areas, added options."

On Tuesday, December 12, NYU Stern Center for Sustainable Business will host Value Creation Through Responsible Investing, a Private Equity Sustainability Practicum.

Excerpt from Poets & Quants — “The business school of the future would be able to move nimbly, adding more contemporary content to the core and elective classes on a regular basis. Sustainability is part of the core as students learn how to deal with topics such as climate change, water scarcity, and inequality – which already have outsize impacts on business. And finally, the business school of the future recognizes that shareholder primacy and a sole focus on profits does a disservice to society and to business and its professors no longer teach it as the roadmap for healthy capitalism.”

Excerpt from Poets & Quants — "The higher-than-expected ranks for these schools is a testament to their outstanding quality, often diminished in many traditional rankings."

Excerpt from Accepted.com -- "There are a couple other things I think that are pretty unique to our part-time program or our MBA programs in general. One is that we provide career services for life and as we know, people change jobs multiple times. So the fact that there’s always a resource available for free for our alumni, either have their resume reviewed, practice interviews, job posts, connections of that sort, even recruiting things going on, that’s a huge benefit for people that I think really has a lot of value.

"The other thing that we’ve offered more recently too is the ability to take courses for free after you graduate."
