Stanford’s culture and academic environment produce a global community of leaders that possess the skills and knowledge to embrace challenge and change. Highly-selective, with access to a close, active community of alumni and a world-class faculty at the forefront of new business ideas and practices in business, Stanford GSB embraces a culture of innovation and risk-taking, and offers a forward-looking focus on meeting the known and unknown challenges of a dynamic global economy.
