Today’s global business leaders must be able to successfully navigate different cultures, economies, and industries.
To help our students develop these crucial capabilities, Tuck offers immersive, experiential courses that take place around the world. During the MBA program, each student must take at least one Bakala TuckGO course in a country that is new to them. In past years students have studied throughout the world in countries from Ghana and Vietnam to Australia, Germany, and Chile. See current GIX offerings and locations of previous GIX courses.
There are a few routes to satisfying the TuckGO requirement: a Global Insight Expedition, a term exchange with one of Tuck’s partner institutions, or a qualifying Independent Study.
In certain circumstances students may use other options to fulfill the global requirement. Please contact TuckGO for further details.
