The core curriculum is the foundation of learning at Tuck
Every element in the academic experience at Tuck—from team-based project work and experiential and global learning opportunities to case-based courses, independent study, and small-scale Research-to-Practice seminars—is designed to push you further than you thought possible with the goal of helping you develop into a curious, creative leader. At Tuck, you’ll develop the functional skills you need to make decisions; the tools to gather and analyze data; and the leadership ability to craft, communicate, and execute a vision for change with and through others.
