Global Modular Courses (GMC) is the experiential learning program designed for candidates interested in solving a location-specific problem. Taught in a workshop format, GMC is a collection of 8-13 courses conducted over three to seven days in collaboration with top Business Schools in Brazil, China, India, Israel, Italy, South Africa, and the United Kingdom.
Welcome to F1GMAT’s #askAtulJose. I am Atul Jose. Most top schools have a similar experiential learning structure. At Wharton, the Global Experiential Learning is offered through three courses: Global Modular Courses, Global Immersion Program and International Exchange Program.
Instead of a study tour, the candidates visit the region and works with the locals and with other students from Wharton undergraduate and EMBA programs, bringing in a multi-faceted view on solving complex Business problems.
International Exchange Program
For Wharton MBAs who want to experience another country, the International Exchange Program offers semester-long programs in 17 partner schools spread across Australia, Brazil, China, France, India, Israel, Italy, Japan, The Netherlands, The Philippines, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, and Thailand.
