Experience Stern | News & Events

Excerpt from Clear Admit -- “NYU Stern’s approach to the question of change is catchy. It sets up, for its students, a tagline, daring them to fill the gap in “Change:…… it”, urges them to create their own manifesto and asks them to explain how they will “dream,” “drive” or “dare it.” “Change,” they write, is “the only constant.”
 

Excerpt from Poets & Quants — “'EQ is core to Stern’s values; we screen for it, we stress it in our admissions process. I can confirm that when I speak with employers (recruiters and hiring managers) and ask about what they see from our students that is different, this is 100% what they say – Stern MBAs are team-oriented, cooperative, fun to be around, different and unique, and possess high EQ. At the same time, Stern MBAs bring strong tech and quantitative skills to the table. Data analytics is part of Stern’s core curriculum and is built into so many classes throughout the MBA experience. In today’s global, tech-driven environment, it’s a cost of entry requirement for doing business.'”
 

Excerpt from Clear Admit -- "This may seem obvious because 'New York' is in our name and is our location, but it goes so much deeper than that; what sets us apart is how we leverage NYC across many dimensions! Stern is in and of the city, and we’ve made it a priority to be intertwined with it. What does this mean for our students? The many benefits of this one-of-a-kind city we call home are core to our MBA programs, from our curriculum, to internships, to careers and lifelong peer networks."
 

Excerpt from Find MBA -- “'My goal is to make sure students are critical thinkers and lifelong learners. I encourage them to dabble with AI, but try not to put it on a pedestal,' Seamans says. He prepares his students by integrating AI into courses on strategy, game theory and data-driven decision making, while also directing Stern’s Center for the Future of Management, which focuses on the evolving global business landscape."

Excerpt from AACSB Insights -- "The Stern School of Business at New York University in New York City is launching a new Initiative on Purpose and Flourishing. The goal is to bring together business leaders and management scholars to help individuals answer the question, 'What should I do with my life, and why?' To that end, the initiative will focus on program development, conferences and events, and research and outreach. It will be led by professor of management Suzy Welch, who teaches a class called 'Becoming You: Crafting the Authentic Life You Want and Need.'"

Excerpt from Clear Admit -- "NYU Stern’s one-year MBA in luxury is changing: after a five-year stint as the ‘Fashion and Luxury’ MBA, it has been refreshed and given the new name of NYU Stern Luxury & Retail MBA. Stern is rolling out updates for the one-year program – promising to put its wildly-popular experiential learning firmly at the front and center, to rebrand in order to better reflect program content, and to imbue its curriculum with ever more industry contact." 

Excerpt from Fortune -- “'I think getting an MBA in general, and certainly more now, is about being adaptable, being able to be able to learn, being able to figure out what’s next for you all the time,' explains J.P. Eggers, vice dean for MBA and graduate programs at NYU’s Stern School of Business."

Excerpt from Poets & Quants — "NYU Stern boasts unique application requirements. That starts with the Pick Six Essay, where students select six photos accompanied by a one sentence caption to reflect the passions and pursuits. Consider it a conversation starter that spotlights who candidates are beyond their academic achievements and professional credentials. Along with a 150-word introduction and a 500-word optional essay, Stern also assigns an essay around its identity – “Change. Dare it. Dream it. Drive it” – that is also the structure of its revamped core curriculum. Here, MBA applicants select one word to accompany “Change” to show how change has impacted their personal narrative and how they will embrace it at Stern – all in 350 words."
 

Excerpt from Clear Admit -- "All sorts of people go to business school and no you don't need a business degree in undergrad. So we certainly have folks who have done an undergraduate degree in business, but we also have economics, STEM fields, liberal arts, history ... We have people from the military, we have people from Teach for America — all sorts of backgrounds." 
 

NYU Stern is refreshing its one-of-a-kind one-year MBA in luxury, including three new unique initiatives to further embed students in the industry.  

Excerpt from Fortune -- “'If what a student mostly needs is—and what they're after is—the credential and the education, there's a lot of evidence that many of the elements that are available through online programs or part time programs can be really good at ways to deliver those things,' adds Eggers, who soon will lead the Stern school as its interim dean."

Excerpt from Clear Admit -- "I was drawn to this course because a key reason for pursuing an MBA was to create far-reaching social impact in my career.

I had always imagined my MBA journey taking me beyond the classroom and to parts of the world that could benefit the most from the skills and resources I was acquiring. On a personal level, I have always shared a connection with India through my family and was keen to discover it through this unique new lens."

Excerpt from Poets & Quants — "What do you think makes you stand out as a professor? Three things come to mind: the courageous classroom environment that I co-create with students, my vulnerability in sharing examples from my own career and life, and the growth that students say they experience as a result are all things that I believe differentiate me as a professor."

Dear Members of the Stern Community:

You are all likely aware of the events on Gould Plaza yesterday and have received President Linda Mills' letter (below) describing NYU's response to the event. The gathering created severe disruption to activities at Stern and caused some community members to feel unsafe; this was, in the end, the only way to find resolution.
