ALDRICH:Aldrich Hall is where all first year classes take place. The horseshoe-shaped classroom layouts were specifically designed to facilitate case method learning.
CASE METHOD:Pioneered by HBS faculty and one of the highlights of the HBS experience, the case method is a profound educational innovation that presents the greatest challenges confronting leading organizations—complete with the constraints and incomplete information found in real business issues—and places the student in the role of the decision maker. Students will read 500 cases during their two years at HBS.
CLUB: There are over 70 student clubs which range from industry focused clubs to recreational/sports clubs to geographical interest clubs. These clubs host over 25 conferences a year and bring extraordinary speakers to the school.
CONFERENCE: HBS hosts around 25 conferences annually; they are open to the public and organized by student clubs.
CPD: CPD is the Career and Professional Development Office on campus. About 70% of students change careers after HBS, and CPD works to help each student define their own unique career vision. The CPD team includes over 55 career coaches who specialize in different industries, geographies or life stages.
EC: EC stands for “elective curriculum” and refers to the flexible second year at HBS. Second year students are also referred to as “ECs”. There are over 100 elective courses for students to choose from, as well as opportunities to cross-register with other Harvard schools, MIT’s School of Management, Fletcher School of Diplomacy at Tufts.
FIELD: FIELD is a required part of the first year curriculum and stands for Field Immersion Experience and Leadership Development. FIELD Foundations takes place during the first semester and engages small teams in interactive workshops that reshape how students think, act, and see themselves. FIELD Global Immersion takes place in the second semester and culminates with student teams going into global markets around the world to help develop a new product or service concept for global partner organizations.
GEO: GEO is the Global Experience Office on campus. You’ll work closely with this department when going abroad for FIELD Global Immersion or IFCs in your second year.
IFC: IFC stands for Immersive Field Courses. You’ll have the option to take one of these in your second year, and they usually include classroom work in the fall that culminates in a global immersion in January.
I-LAB: The Harvard Innovation Lab is a state of the art building which serves as a hub for entrepreneurial activity around the university and the Boston area.
NVC: The New Venture Competition is an annual student competition sponsored by Harvard Business School’s Rock Center for Entrepreneurship and Social Enterprise Initiative. Students can test their ideas, get feedback from industry experts, and win prize money.
PARTNER: About 15% of students come to HBS with significant others. Partners receive many of the same great benefits as students, like an HBS Partner ID card (to join our fitness center and use library resources) and access to some MBA Career & Professional Development services. Partners are also encouraged to attend HBS-sponsored partner events and join HBS clubs.
RC: RC stands for “Required Curriculum” and refers to the first year at HBS. As RCs, students take a set of 10 Required Curriculum courses which are the foundation of the general management education.
ROCK: The Arthur Rock Center for Entrepreneurship is the hub of entrepreneurship at HBS. The Rock Center manages many different programs including the New Venture Competition, the Rock Accelerator program, the Entrepreneurs-in-Residence program, the Rock Summer Fellowships, and the loan reduction program for students pursuing entrepreneurial ventures after school.
SA: The HBS Student Association represents and advocates for the student body and serves as the main interface between students and the faculty/administration. Through our academic, social, and professional initiatives, we strive to create an invaluable and rewarding MBA experience for all students.
SECTION: HBS can feel like a big place – so the class is divided into ten sections of about 90 people. During your first year you will take all your classes with this group, and it’s likely they’ll become your closest friends at business school.
SPANGLER: Spangler epicenter of student activity. It is home to the dining hall, game room, US Post Office, Harvard COOP, MBA offices, and more.
START: START week is the first official welcome for the new class of MBA students. START takes place over the course of students’ first week on campus in late August; all first years (RCs) participate in START and a group of second year (EC) START Ambassadors plan and lead activities throughout the week.
TGIF: Every Friday students gather on campus to celebrate the close of the week over food and drinks.
TREK: Pack your bags to travel to different parts of the world! HBS Treks are student organized trips that give you a chance to network, explore career options, and learn about new cultures with your classmates.
TUNNELS: The underground tunnels at HBS connect different buildings around campus. The best part? You can go from your dorm to your classroom in shorts and flip flops – even in the middle of winter.作者: tanning 时间: 2018-5-20 18:33
