10 Skills for the Future

To redesign the program, in 2021, the MBA team completed an audit of the curriculum to identify 10 key skills that all MBA graduates need to tackle sustainability issues upon graduation.

Each skill will be integrated into the program’s framework and core courses, and cover four themes: climate and nature, equity and society, governance, and pandemic recovery.
