了解哈佛商学院先从它的“黑话"开始

几乎每一个机构都会有它的“黑话”,只有在这个体制内的人才会知道那些看似毫无头绪的词语是什么意思。学校也不例外,HBS就在官方blog上详细的列出了商学院最常用的术语。想要成为HBS中的一员,学习他们的说话方式也至关重要,并且在了解这些术语的同时你也可以迅速掌握HBS最具代表性的特点有哪些。

HBS Lingo 101

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.
